AXM-E0301 - Art + Media Studio, Lecture, 28.2.2024-31.5.2024

Topic outline

• Select topic General

  General
  Please note! When you register to the course on SISU you need to select one of the studio groups. This selection is not final. You are not tied to that selection and it also does not guarantee a seat in that specific group. The actual group confirmation will happen during the first weeks of the course.

  The groups will have specific priority orders for the final selection in the case that they are overbooked. For example, this course is a compulsory course for VCD students, so students from Visual Communication Design will have priority in the VCD themed groups. Some of the groups might also require some prerequisites.

  For the 2024 course, we offer the following thematic studio groups:

  • Information Design (Rupesh Vyas)
  • Visual Narratives (Vilja Achté)
    
  • Type and Written Language (Tuomas Kortteinen)
    
  • Self-Organized Publishing (Tuukka Kaila)
    
  • Interactive and Immersive Art (Matti Niinimäki)
    
  • Generative AI (Calvin Guillot)
    
  • Story Ecologies & More Than Human Practices (Lucy Davis)

  Schedule

  The course spans across periods 4 and 5. In period 4, we only have meetings once a week, first as a large group and then divided into the specific studio groups. Period 5 is when the core of the studio work happens.
