Description:

This interdisciplinary arts course is for both non-art and art majors. Students will use a variety of non-traditional media and techniques to stretch their definition of the visual arts. Emphasis will be placed on studio experimentation with the arts of time, space, and concept. Students will use found materials, video, film, sound, language, and performance art to create objects, environments, and events. Emphasis is placed on questioning the processes by which meaning is constructed. Students interested in experimental music, writing, theater, and visual arts (but have no previous experience) are encouraged to enroll. Lecture/critique: one hour per week. Studio: four hours per week. This course is offered every other year and has no prerequisites.
