Practice Theme

The theme of Digital Craft 2017 is How to be Human. Over the next 16 weeks, you will explore how human, inhumane, candid, or uncanny your digital/electronic media can be. The first 8 weeks are dedicated to bi-weekly thematic projects. The last 8 weeks consist of an independent research on a medium of your choice.

Projects

On The Body

Week 1

Each minor is asked to draw a body part. In the intro week assignment that are required to make an artefact that reflects, remediates, adapt or extends the function of their choices part of the body. In a addition to the ‘artefact’, a large scale refined drawing of their human body part and campaign poster for the minor will be displayed in a mini exhibition.

Each third year student becomes a body double for the last two days of the Minor project week to help with the work and exhibition (Thursday & Friday).

Week 2 - 

Each minor student will deepen/push their project and put extra attention on refinement and craftsmanship

Each third year will produce a new work inspired by one of the minor projects, but in an explicitly different medium or approach.

  2. A short filmshowing a design scenario in the context of (in)human factors
  3. A small "booklet" exploring the Mind [of] the Machine
  4. A well-presented sketch illustrating the direction you wish to explore based on one of the three previous project, within the context of "How To Be Human" (a visual forshadowing of your Q10 proposal)
