Course Description:
Cyberspace is merging with physical space as new technologies and applications make their way into almost every phase of artistic practice, root themselves in our day-to-day lives, and mediate our relationships to our bodies. This course is designed to provide students with hands-on experience using various interactive technologies towards application in live art and performance practice. Referencing proxemics as a point of entry, areas to be covered include: an overview of new media history, remix practice, online communities, sound/video art, and interactive audio and video programming. The forms and uses of the new technologies are explored in a studio context of experimentation, embodiment, and discussion. Assignments will take the form of experimental paper writing, assemblages, installations, sound mash-ups, computer-mediated choreographies, and 'interactive' art projects.
