Time and Process Based Digital Media
Vis 145B - Students will implement time and process based projects under the direction of faculty. Projects such as software and hardware interfacing, computer mediated performance, software art, installation, interactive environments, data visualization and sonification will be produced as advanced study and porfolio project. (4 units)
Grading Policy
Overall grade:
- Assignments
- Midterm Project
- Final Project
Assignments are graded on completion. If I assign something during lecture or if you do not finish a lab activity, that item will be due by the next section (one week later). If you finish on time, you will get 100% credit.
Attendance is mandatory. Each absence (from lecture or section) is a 1/2 letter grade deduction off your final grade. Three absences is a failing grade.
Projects are graded on :
- 33.3% - concept
- 33.3% - effort/realization
- 33.3% - presentation/documentation
Readings will familiarize you with material covered in lecture.
