Overview
This course will
take as its basic premise the collaboration of art/design students and computer
science students who will combine their skills and knowledge towards the
creation of computer based and generated virtual environments, interactive
3 dimensional computer installations and other (at this time unspecifed)
projects founded within the broad category of Art and Computing. As is implied
by the previous sentence the instructors of this course will be open to a
diverse range of project proposals provided that they present creative integrity,
originality and a focus toward the basic perimeters of this courses' overall
aim, i.e. creativity, expression and/or narrative in a 3 Dimensional computer
generated realm.
The course will accept 10 students each from the FASS/VACD and FENS/CS
programmes at Sabancı University, to be teamed up into groups of
2 students, forming a total of 10 teams, each
comprised of one "artist/designer" and one "scientist".
The teams will collaborate upon the following course content and expectations.
