  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. An exploration of printing activities and techniques that question and expand the interfaces of the traditional print media of lithography, woodcut, and etching with contemporary digital imaging activities and techniques. Through the making of work we will look at how digital technologies affect the contemporary vocabulary of printmaking. We work with moving and still images and with images on paper as well as on the internet. We make, send and receive images as ways of understanding how ideas about print media are expanding, how these same ideas have historically been rooted in notions about communication, and how we can conceive and make print translations that cross traditional media. Prerequisite: At least one Expanded Media Sophomore Design, Video/Sonic, or Print Media Studio or permission of instructor. ART 225 highly recommended. (Fall)
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. An advanced studio course dedicated to working with video as a creative medium. Students explore methods of 'real time' image processing and digital compositing using tools spanning three decades of processor design, all of which can be used in combination to develop unique works of art. Junior Video explores a wide range of theories and traditions including but not limited to: advanced digital image processing, analog video synthesis, advanced computer editing, video installation, lighting, scripting, and a variety of other experimental approaches. Critiques of student work and an investigation of the history of Video Art are of great importance to this course. At least one Expanded Media Sophomore Design, Video/Sonic, or Print Media Studio is required or permission of instructor. ART 232 highly recommended. May be repeated once for credit. (Fall and Spring)
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. This special topics studio course will explore the creative possibilities found between sound, image, and time.
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. This special topics course is project-centered and is designed for students who are interested in the convergence of sound, moving and still image, and interactive technologies. It is especially designed for those who are interested in making work that is determined by its interaction with the viewer in an activated and immersive space. This course will lead students to work on a range of tangible and digital interactive projects, from CD-ROM authoring, to interactive still image/video/sound, and computer/sensor-controlled installation/video projection. Students will work with sensor, micro-controllers and other electronic devises to developtheir final projects. At least one Expanded Media Sophomore Design, Video/Sonic, or Print Media Studio is required or permission by instructor. (Fall or Spring)
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. Contemporary art making has been profoundly impacted by new digital technologies. This course focuses on how digital print media informs and evolves visual language for artistic expression. Providing each participant with a hands-on opportunity to explore large-format digital printing technologies, it is designed to help create a context in which to ask questions about the nature of dynamic media relative to the making of contemporary printed images. Looking for transitions, collapsing barriers, and sharing vocabulary, artists will consider multiples, sequencing, mark-making, notation, gesture, and narrative concerns within both digital media and traditional printmaking. Further experimentation across media will be investigated. These media may include: drawing, painting, photography, video, animation, multi-media and internet interfaces. Participants will be able to experiment with printing on a variety of handmade papers (up to 36"x 48") using eight color, permanent ink, large-format, ink jet technology. The course welcomes artists with beginning and advanced technological experience.
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. An advanced studio course dedicated to working with sound as a creative medium. Not a music course, it is designed for visual art students who wish to explore a wide range of possibilities for working in sound. This course examines many technologies and traditions including but not limited to: digital sound processing, graphic notation, algorithmic synthesis, ambient structures, atmospherics, digital editing, live multi-track recording, and granular synthesis. Critiques of student work and an investigation of the history of experimental sound are of great importance to this course. Prerequisite: At least one Expanded Media Sophomore Design, Video/Sonic, or Print Media Studio or permission of instructor ART 232 highly recommended. May be repeated once for credit. (Fall and Spring) Courses of Instruction: New York State College of Ceramics 267 ART 340 - Web Media 4 hours. This special topics course will introduce the theory and practice of art and art making on the Internet though a focused investigation of web languages and concepts including HTML, CSS (cascading style sheets), and JavaScript to be used in the building of sites and the construction of web page layouts. Web page development will be demonstrated via a wide range of examples covering different types of page layouts. The course will focus on the integration of pages with various medias including video, sound, text, and image. Text based coding and manual layout strategies will help the student to develop the techniques necessary to achieve dynamic page layouts within the conceptual framework of a specific site. This studio will combine layout principles and computer methodologies for web site development. Prerequisite: At least one Sophomore Design, Video/Sonic, or Print Media Studio is required or permission of instructor. (Spring or Fall)
  • 4.00 Credits

    2 or 4 hours. This elective course will explore the use of electronic modes of communication available for artists via internet techniques. Students can create an 'internet presence' and focus on using 'electronic transmissions' of their 'data' in the digital space. This will involve the creation and use of different forms of digital art and media via software 'tools'. After the development of 'media' the artist may then explore the type of transmissions available for 'streaming' their data. The focus is for the artist to develop an analytical and dynamical sense of the surrounding 'electronic space'. Individual projects will explore this 'invisible electronic space' and the 'transmission' of artwork. At least one Expanded Media Sophomore Design, Video/Sonic, or Print Media Studio is required or permission of instructor. (Fall or Spring)
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. Students will examine interactive art through assignment driven investigations and projects. Interactivity can involve various forms of human engagement from the simplest turning of a switch to trigger computer animations, to the activation of an entire room with sound and images through the movement of a viewer. By investigating the historical and conceptual relationships in which audio, image sequences and interactivity have expanded into installation forms, the class will explore the full potential of what interactive art means. Projects will be computer based and students will ultimately expand their works into installation environments that consider the use of alternative interfaces, projections and screens. Prerequisite: at least one Sophomore Expanded Media Design, Video/Sonic or Print Media studio is required or permission of instructor. (Spring or Fall)
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. Students will explore the 'database' as a source for creative interactive art production. The class will encompass gathering, listening, documenting, sifting and reordering an array of media and computer based production techniques. Sound, video, animation, and image will be considered through a process of experimental storytelling, and 'deconstruction' via web based, CD-Rom and/or DVD authoring software. This course is a unique opportunity to explore the boundaries of moving and still images, language and sounds through the construction of complex screen interfaces. Projects will be computer based and potentially touch screen accessible. At least one Sophomore Expanded Media Design, Video/Sonic or Print Media studio is required or permission of instructor. May be repeated once for credit. (Spring or Fall)
  • 4.00 Credits

    4 hours. Junior painting involves intensive exploration into issues of painting and drawing with emphasis on the beginnings of each student's unique means of expression.
