Building on the knowledge and experience acquired in quarter one, you will be encourage to create interactive works. Outcomes can take any form, from animated drawings, interactive maps, generative image, audio-visual works, or data visualizations.

Subjects

Subjects explored include:

  • Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) – for the creation of interactive and animated vector images in the browser, also in conjunction with vector drawing software, such as Illustrator and Inkscape.
  • JavaScript and jQuery - to provide the interactive and dynamic elements to web pages to pages
  • Raphael/Paperjs Javascript libraries - for SVG manipulation.
  • D3 Javascript library - for the creation of visualizations (in SVG format)
  • HTML audio-video and canvas

Work load

The work load for the quarter will be divided into:

  • weekly classes,
  • simple weekly deliverables – small exercises that consolidate the techniques and concepts approached in classes, as well as allow you to find expressive and personal ways of employing them.
  • one main deliverable project - that will congregate the knowledge acquired from classes and deliverables onto a project where you create the behind the scenes of your intervention.
