You bring in a project. We explore how to make it more engaging through paying close attention to medium, context, and details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students bring existing project ideas and we investigate various methods and ways to make and direct experience within the infinite combinations of contexts of the present moment together. This particular studio is just as appropriate for projects in the areas of interactive art, programming, physical computing, XR as it is in the areas of performance, sculpture, and sound walks (everything).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything you make is time-based the moment a user interacts with it (even a painting). All time-based work can be thought of in terms of how a user is led (or not led) through it. I call this directing. We will apply various techniques of story-telling and world-building equally to seemingly \u201cnon-narrative\u201d projects as we do to traditional-narratively structured projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter what you are working on, I believe that you are a maker \/ director of experience. You are making \/ directing with intent (whether you know it or not). Your user (audience, tester, public, patron) brings with them the entirety of their life\u2019s experience. Your intent cannot possibly meet every user&#8217;s lived experience. It is your job as the maker \/ director to draw a circle that encompasses both. This is the studio\u2019s lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students will be directed to make using placeholders instead of waiting for perfection to manifest. Step one will tell you what step two is. We will pay rigorous attention to detail, while holding close to the notion that art-making thrives in adaptability. We will critique using various, structured, co-facilitated methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s pay close attention. Let\u2019s learn through failure. Let\u2019s listen to what we are making. And let\u2019s listen to each other. Here we go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project-based development studio incorporating dramaturgy techniques, user\/audience planning, and social\/contextual awareness.
