ART 223 - Robotic and Kinetic Art


This course will focus on kinetic and interactive sculpture and installation-art. As technology develops, artists employ the lo-tech and hi-tech approaches found within the DIY (do-it-yourself) culture to explore new avenues of dialogue and visual effects. By employing electronic devices, motors, and microcontrollers such as Arduino and Teensy, students will learn to hack objects and program open source electronics. Students will create projects that combine everyday junk with the technology of physical computing. All are welcome. No previous art experience is necessary. A basic understanding of computers is recommended but not required. Course Typically Offered: Every 3 years.

Prerequisite(s): None.

Credits: 3
