| − | Welcome to the 3rd year program of Digital Crafts. From September to December, you will be introduced to a wide range of skills, issues, critical perspectives and concrete examples relevant to the emergent field of digital crafts. Before the Christmas break, you will have developed a number of small group projects, and a final project in the form of a stand-alone presentation, with accompanying research documentation.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The theme of this block is Beyond Human: Rewiring Technology in the Anthropocene. We will be exploring the complex relationships between humans and machines, nature and technology. We seek to challenge you to become critical of technology, and able to use technology to express critique. Every solution creates new problems: how will you position your work in a broader political, social and ecological context?

| |
| − | Each project will have a packaged wiki page with proper documentation/ contextualization of the project. During the mid-semester review, your will need to discuss your direction for the final quarter.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Project 1: Posthuman Prosthetic: you will present a self-directed work as a prototype of a new human-machine relationship, relating to reimagining technology in the posthuman age. The prototypes should be materialized in 3D form, and simulate interactive feedback loops.
| |
| − | (max 5 people per group). DEADLINE: (..)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Project 2: Inhuman factors: sensors and sensitivity training: you will open the 'black box' of a technical device in an anatomical machine learning lesson. Document and research all of the parts, how they work, where they come from. Redesign and add new circuits. Put it back together with a new function and added sensor feedback loops. The basic electronics should be fully functional.
| |
| − | DEADLINE: (..)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Project 3: Complex Systems & the Anthropocene. How is technology linked to economical, political and ecological wicked problems and human-made catastrophes? Where is a line out? How to break the feedback loops? How is the supply chain linked to the device you are working with? Pick a problem or issue to engage with and resign an ecological system.
| |
| − | DEADLINE: (..)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Final project
| |
| − | you will present your research question, your planning, and a conceptual and technical experiment for a final project. You will intensely explore and develop over the following 6 weeks to present in the end term exhibition.
