CT 100Digital Platforms: Observations and Practices

5 creditsUndergraduateStudent Option

Explore media technologies by directly engaging digital platforms, transmission, and storage, as direct rather than indirect practices. Topics covered, through lenses of both theory and practice, include global circulation of media—emphasizing the contemporary digital image, relations between sound and mobile-technology media and the environment, and the technical infrastructure of digital interfaces and data visualization. Critiquing data collection, representation, and curation, student projects build a vocabulary for critical engagement with cultural production and conditions.
