DMS 434 SEWING CURCUITS AND WEARABLE MEDIA
E. Conrad :: T R, 3:00 PM – 4:50 PM :: CFA 246
Reg#312950
This production course explores the expressive potential of soft circuitry and wearable media. We will explore the materials and construction techniques of “soft computing” (conductive fabrics, yarns, etc.) to create expressive objects and interactive fashions. Technologies are not merely exterior aids, but interior changes of consciousness. They affect how we understand ourselves by co-structuring possibilities of thought. The focus of this course will be interaction and interrelationship between soft technologies and bodies. There are no prerequisites – introductory electronics and sewing techniques will be reviewed. Fulfills Non * Intemediate Production or Media Study Elective
