Taught By: Jet Vellinga
Section: B

CRN: 1778

Credits: 3

Core Studio and Lab: Collaboration courses focus on the practice of designing environments and creating spatial narrative, in the context of immersive media (CT track), digital games (Game track) and interactive experiences more broadly. We will examine the principles that installation artists, environment designers, game designers and virtual experience designers use to structure and present spaces, to make them readable and meaningful, and to set the stage for people to have a particular desired experience. In a series of solo and collaborative projects, students will design, build, user-test, and refine a number of immersive and playful experiences in different styles and genres, each exploring the theme of environment through a different lens. Project prompts include: Environmental Storytelling, Worlds in Text, Sensory Remapping and Embodiment in Virtual Space. The Studio, which meets once a week, will focus on concept, aesthetics and form related to project development concerning these prompts, as well as situating work in a cultural and historical context. A related Lab, which meets twice a week, will focus on the technical development in Unity that relates to these themes. Both Studio and Lab will underscore the critical nature and social inter-relationships of their work, processes and tools.
