Media, Materials, Makers

Uitgebreide vaknaam	Media, Materials, Makers: Art and/as Research
Leerdoelen
Omschrijving	This course focuses on how artists, media, materials and researchers could interact during processes of art production, distribution or reception. Together with students of the master department of the art academy, you explore ethnographic, phenomenological, and collaborative approaches to the study of art and learn how to carry out research that joins artistic and scholarly perspectives. The course particularly explores the relation between so-called traditional, digital, and post-digital materials & media, their technologies, and medium-specific esthetics as well as the different experiences they afford. This course is developed as a collaborative module of the MA track Art History and the MA track Arts, Culture & Media (RUG) with the Master of Fine Arts program of the Frank Mohr Institute (Hanze University). The collaboration between the two institutions and their students enables a cross-fertilization between concepts, frameworks, working and research methods. Besides the collaborative projects research proposals are formulated in which artistic and scholarly components are incorporated. Topics of studies that have been done in the past range from 'walking and mapping: mobile media art’, ‘Contemporary studiopractices and the DIY/DIT/open source culture’, ‘tactile interfaces and embodied learning’ to ‘mixed reality performances’.
