3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to Book Arts. It includes both traditional and contemporary approaches as well as working with the book as a sculptural medium. Students will be encouraged to experiment with a wide variety of materials and processes and will learn to make several book structures to use as a means of expressing narrative and sequential concepts through which they will develop conceptual abilities and technical proficiencies. Note: Formerly titled “Fiber Structures I: Dimensional Form”.
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on the fundamental structural and surface techniques of fibers. Techniques including weaving, surface dyeing, felt making, embroidery, basketry, and basic hand and machine sewing will be introduced. Students will be encouraged to explore their own unique interpretations using alternative and traditional fiber materials to create contemporary works of art. Note: This course does not fulfill Tyler BFA requirements. Mode: Studio.
-
3.00 Credits
An investigation of the unique properties of dye color application on fabric. Discharge, resisting and patterning techniques are covered, with an emphasis on color relationships and imagery.
-
3.00 Credits
Single and multiple element structures including wrapping, netting, knotting, plaiting, rope making and felting. Both two- and three-dimensional construction will be explored.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to weaving using the floor loom. Tapestry and other structural techniques will be taught. Both an historical and a contemporary approach will be encouraged.
-
3.00 Credits
Students with prior metalworking experience have the opportunity to explore nontraditional electrochemical processes for the creation of unique forms in metal.
Prerequisite:
CRAFTS 3465 (0265) Junior Metalsmithing, Metals/Jewelry/CAD-CAM Major, or Special Permission
-
3.00 Credits
Aspects of applying color to metals or changing the existing color of metallic surfaces are explored. Students are introduced to the new techniques, color anodizing aluminum, and the space-age metals titanium and niobium. Application of color resin and vitreous enamels are also examined.
Prerequisite:
CRAFTS 3465 (0265) Junior Metalsmithing, Metals/Jewelry/CAD-CAM Major, or Special Permission
-
3.00 Credits
The lathe, milling machine, drill press, and other machines are examined for their creative potential.
Prerequisite:
CRAFTS 3465 (0265) Junior Metalsmithing, Metals/Jewelry/CAD-CAM Major, or Special Permission
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to production processes and marketing. Students will design and produce an object in quantity and be assisted in the marketing of that object.
Prerequisite:
CRAFTS 3465 (0265) Junior Metalsmithing, Metals/Jewelry/CAD-CAM Major or Special Permission
-
3.00 Credits
Using Rhinoceros 3D CAD modeling software and Flamingo photorealistic rendering software the student will learn to customize the modeling environment and create basic graphic objects: lines, circles, arcs, curves, solids, and surfaces. Students will proceed to draw with precision using coordinate input and object snaps and modify objects with edit commands. This course will show students how to display any portion of the model, import and merge models and output models to different file formats. Creating, testing and verifying solid models in STL file format for production of rapid prototypes will be a focus of this course. Finally, photorealistic rendering of CAD models will be practiced. Note: This course does not fulfill Tyler BFA requirements.
