Incorporating presentations, discussions on the history of computer enabled art forms, and a series of hands-on technical workshops in programming methods and techniques, the course provides a critical context for emerging forms of experimental practice. Topics include physical computing,interaction design, practical components of hardware design (electricity, electronics, microprocessors, components, sensors and actuators), and programming (variables, datatypes, control structures, functions, objects, communication protocols). There may be a class fee assessed to your student account. Credits: 3
