Light is and remains one of the most important elements for the existence of life on earth. Plants, animals and humans depend on it. Light is omnipresent, it makes things visible and is itself transparent. Light gives rooms stillness, creates spatial presence, makes space disappear. It is both a representation and a means of representation - a fascinating material for artists and designers. Digital technologies make it possible to think of light dynamically, responsively or interactively and challenge us to develop adequate new forms and ways of dealing with it. Sound plays a major role in this context. The question arises as to what artistic and design potentials arise when light can react to its environment in combination with sound.

The aim of the project module is to explore and prototype new forms of interaction with light and sound. In addition to a fundamental understanding of the physical phenomenon of light and its physiological effects, we want to explore the character of light and develop interesting connections between light and the human experience.  

The term in the seminar title - Enlightening Narratives - artistic approach to light, sound, perception and interaction - can be understood to mean all things, objects, interventions, items, modules, artefacts and installation works and their interfaces that deal with the theme of light. In this project module, there will be space for creative and artistic concepts and their implementation that deal with the topic of light in the most diverse forms.

The following teaching formats are offered:

'''Lecture:''' A series of lectures is offered to accompany the bachelor's and master's projects of the professorship. This deals with various design and artistic positions and provides an insight into tools and methods for the conception and design of objects, artefacts and installation works and their interfaces that deal with the subject of light. The language of the course will be English.  

'''Artisttalk:''' We will receive visits - in person as well as online - from interesting designers and artists who will give an insight into their work and working processes.

'''Consultation:''' Individual projects and professional development can be discussed by appointment. At least 2 consultations should be attended.

'''Exhibition visit:''' As part of the project module, we will visit an exhibition that deals with the theme of light. Afterwards, we will discuss and exchange ideas about the works and positions shown.
