Installation and Projection Design

Course Description

Summary

The purpose of this course will be to go through the practical, material, and aesthetic concerns of installations involving moving image. Whether through the use of live feed for performance, or a static multichannel flatscreen display in a gallery, the curriculum will aim to prepare students with the skills to plan and improvise on their own installations. We will work together to understand the mechanics of projection and file playback, cable management and power consumption. Through the recreation of current and canonical works of video installation, students will work towards gaining real knowledge of the physics and aesthetics of moving image display.
