Description

Beyond the Digital : Developing Your Poetic Voice in Architecture, Graphics, & Film

Too often today the digital medium of working becomes the content of the work; with the expressive sensibility of the work predetermined by the software of choice. The creative intent thus is sometimes no more than doing something new - the latest fad or fashion.

This seminar puts forth the position that artistic practice should look back as well as forward, guided by intuition as well as intellect, and be focused on creating a poetic sensuous immediacy of experience rooted in the ineffabilities of life’s complex and often contradictory resonances.

Lectures on specific poetic techniques will be accompanied by readings and design assignments. Each assignment will require that work be developed and pinned up for critic each week. Assignments will be given in photography, film, graphic design, and architecture.
