Digital Arts
About the Minor
Digital Arts supports students in building a body of work spanning multi-media production, design, storytelling, sound, web and performance platforms, with access to new technology, equipment and facilities. The program also provides opportunities to connect with contemporary artists, designers, and professionals in relevant, emerging fields. Courses address issues of sustainability, accessibility, collaboration, embodiment, interactivity, identity and citizenship.
A Sampling of Courses
Performance, Ritual and Technology
This class will cover performance strategies in relationship to digital technology, ritual and the social. We will create collaborative and hybrid work at the intersection of performance, digital media and social practice and map out modes of ritual engagement within these intersections. We will explore "liveness" as a digital and/or embodied presence and survey contemporary hybrid performance work.
