Welcome to ART 116 Digital is Fundamental: 4D & 5D design.
THRU YOU
So what the heck is this class about?
It is an overview on creating art considering the 4th & 5th dimensions.
Is this a 'computer class'?
No. Although we will definitely be using your laptops for class, this course focuses on how ALL art mediums interact with these two dimensions.
* this area of art crosses over many areas so therefore has many names. some of the more popular names are: Digital Art, Inter-Media, Hybred Media & Digital Media Arts
Can you name an art medium that has not intersected with the computer?
Is there a lab fee like in all my other classes?
Yes. It is $100 and it gets charged to your account.
How does this class work?
This class is run through 2 websites, this blog and a Facebook group. You are expected to visit both frequently. I generally update the blog within 12 hours of class, Facebook gets updated as is needed.
The blog contains all the information related to the class including links to examples, a blog on what will be covered each class, the syllabus, project details and links to useful websites.
The Facebook group will be used for important updates and deadlines and will have examples and other connections useful to the class.
Lets take a look at these two sites.
Why do I use these websites for class?
Have you heard of the term 'Web 2.0'?
What are some other examples of Web 2.0 sites?
Something to think about!
