In this course, students explore cultural and social issues integrating the disciplines and themes they are pursuing through their general course study. This project based studio expands upon skills acquired in the first year, using a wide variety of design literacies and research methods, including drawing, digital design and prototyping. Students conduct research using methods of dynamic listening in an effort to focus and sensitize themselves to various people, places and local systems. This will result in individual art and design responses through a hands on project-based approach. This studio integrates making, reading, writing and research in a way that is crucial to future study and practice.
