Description

This subject explores the development of aesthetic ideas in a media arts context with a focus on modes of experimental engagement with the creative languages that underpin the media arts. It provides students with the opportunity to develop the potential impact of a work through experimenting with form, composition, and poetics. The subject examines how aesthetics are both culturally determined and dynamic. During the subject, students explore these ideas by defining their own experimental approaches to composition and form. The resulting works may take the form of moving image, sound/music, network media, installation forms or any combination of these.
