Office Hours: Wednesday 3-4pm, Atkinson Hall Rm 1601 (CRCA research neighborhood). Please e-mail me if you plan to attend.
== Grading Policy ==Participation - 20%*Midterm Project - 30%*Final Project - 30%Responses *Presentations - 15%*Readings - 2015%
=== Presentations ===
# Short presentation on your work in the second week of class. This should be a statement of your interests, direction, goals with media art. Present examples from your own work which you feel strongly about, and which best represent your interests and trajectory. Present examples of other artist's work that serve as models for the kind of work you would like to make. (5-10 minutes each)
# Medium presentation on final projects in the second semester of the course (weeks 7-9). This is the portion of the class where you dictate the reading and the discussion. If you are presenting on a given week, you need to provide us with a reading 1 week in advance. We will sign up for those time slots in week 6, just after the midterm. (10-15 minutes)
=== Reading Responses ===
Written summary or critical response/interpretation of what you read. What points is the author making? Do you buy their assumptions or agree with their conclusions? Reading responses will be printed and turned in at the beginning of class.
=== Projects ===
Midterm and final projects will be graded on concept, effort, and realization. Formal proposals are a necessary component of the process so take them seriously. Make the effort to get started early and seek the help you need--we want to see finished, well-considered pieces for the midterm and final. Additionally, you will need to submit documentation of the project after completion which includes images, video, and source code where applicable. These materials (proposals and documentation) will all be posted to the wiki.
== Attendance ==
Attendance is mandatory. You get one absence (for sickness/other vital concern if documented)--each class missed after that will drop your final grade one letter.
