ARTS 082 - Problems in: Creative Resistance


Next Offered: 2009-2010
Semester Offered: First Semester
Credits (Range): 3 Hours
Attribute: 3 HU

Current history and theory of media-based protest arts, including hacktivism, tactical media, and public intervention will be explored. We will learn how artists utilize digital tools to create acts of resistance, and how this relates to the history of protest in the arts. Ideas about new technologies as art-making tools (GPS, cellular technology, hand-held devices, wi-fi) will be introduced and explored. We will stage and enact media interventions, using digital tools and performance. Experience with Dreamweaver/HTML and/or Final Cut Pro suggested.
Instructor: J. Christensen
