PGY 2446C - Alternative Processes/ Photography

Institution:

St. Petersburg College

Subject:

Description:

3 credits Prerequisite: PGY 2401C. This course is designed to enable students to evolve individually and as a group toward the utilization of historical photographic processes fused into new technologies. The program takes an interdisciplinary approach to experimental applications of old photographic technologies and examines the integration of computer technology into these processes and its impact on the culture, visual expression, and communications in the world today. Students will examine early non-silver photographic processes, such as Kalotypes, Cyanotypes, and Gum Bicromates and incorporate these processes with computer materials and techniques. Students will explore how the integration of these diverse applications can allow for greater and new creative discoveries in their approach to both photographic and computer related technologies. The emphasis will be a "hands-on" approach working with other students in an equipped photographic and electronic laboratory designed to provide an environment for creative activity which reflects the inherent flexibility of conventional and computer technologies and how this medium has expanded the visual syntax in all forms of expression. 92 contact hours.
