Description
This course explores devices and machines for visual and acoustic perception. Participants will build a machine supporting their perception and develop tools to communicate their ideas. It emphasizes a bottom-up approach to electronic systems through experimentation, deconstruction and reverse-engineering of common-place technology.
Some of the topics, themes and methods we will look at include:
- Do-it-yourself electronics
- Electromechanical systems
- Beautitronics
- Speculative technologies
- Experimental hardware
- Structures for cyborging
- Art-making robots
- Baumarkt aesthetics
Please Note:
- There is a 10 euro material fee for this class
- This course will be taught in English
