Course Detail: PDFN-138 - FOUNDATIONS: 4D DESIGN


Through the introduction of the core principles of time-based media, basic code, prototyping and user experience, this studio implores students to explore the concepts of time and interactivity and its impact on the design and experience of their work. Students work within an iterative process to create multiple projects, organizing visual and other sensory elements in order to understand perceptual attributes and convey meaningful messages through objects, spaces and experiences. Students research, develop, design and prototype multiple projects, selecting one to produce and present as a fully realized piece.
