This particular studio is focused on projects involving extended physical interaction. Students are expected to present a project description on the first day of class. They work together with the class and the instructor to develop a production plan for their project. Weekly class meetings consist of critique and feedback sessions on individual and group projects, and breakout sessions with students working individually or in groups with people working on similar projects. As technical topics of general interest emerge, the instructor takes class time to cover them. Students are expected to show their projects multiple times during the semester, test the projects in stages, and get feedback from both class members in class and from the audience for whom their projects are intended, outside of class. The focus of the studio is on physical interaction: namely, what does the person experiencing your work do, and what does the work do in response? If the answer is "Nothing, they just watch", or "the work doesn't respond," then there is no interaction. Much of the discussion about projects will focus on this. If you are working on your project for this class as part of another class as well, you will still be expected to meet the schedule and the goals and focus of this class in your work. Class 1: Jan 26 Introductions, speed dating style. Everyone will explain their project to everyone else in 2-3 minute chunks. Then we'll introduce each other's projects to the class, also in 2-3 minute chunks. Assignments: Take notes on the introduction, prepare a correction for next week.
