This series presents a set of lectures by prominent individuals exploring Digital+Media as a creative, expressive tool. Every other week the class meets and talks About the lectures and discusses additional related readings. Students write a paper on a related topic and/or put into context their own work in relation to one of the visiting lecturer’s talks. This short written paper is to be 2400 words + references and is expected to articulate the salient issues discussed in one of the lectures and/or is to articulate some important aspect of the lecturer’s work. Individual meetings are also facilitated that provide feedback on student work. The class meets in a wired classroom and views additional work via the internet. In addition to the written paper, each student introduces a discussion related to a specific lecturer by presenting an oral report on a related reading or website material. Approximately 3 Students present these reports each week (when the class meets outside of the RISD Auditorium). The class then discusses the presentation of the visiting artist/critic.
