What you study
Programming for Artists
This course provides you with the tools you will need to creatively apply programing skills to your own practice. It encourages a practical and theoretical engagement with computer programming. Visits from guest speakers and student-led discussions will encourage and enhance your critical awareness of the issues surrounding computer art. During the course you will be expected to undertake small-scale programming projects.
Creative Technologies & Art Practices
Often provocative and engaging, art of the electronic age addresses significant issues relating to post-modem society. In the 1960s, artists felt the need to seek collaborations with engineers and scientists to help produce innovative work using new technologies. This seminar course establishes a framework for reading key texts, and a discussion forum that explores the relationship between arts and technology.
Workshops in Creative Coding
This course aims to offer you the opportunity to develop skills in applied audiovisual computing through a series of workshops and project sessions. The topics delivered cover creative software development in C/C++, and audio and graphics programming for embedded systems (iPhone and iPad).
Electives
A number of optional courses are available on a variety of interdisciplinary topics such as artificial intelligence, computer vision, audio engineering, physical computing, animation and cognition.
