Synopsis

Much  of  contemporary  and  innovative  art  practice  involves   new
technologies  such  as  computers,  sound  and  video.  This   is   an
introductory  unit designed to expose students to the  electronic  and
temporal  arts,  so that they may be aware of, and  begin  to  embrace
these  new  technologies in their own art practice. Notions of  design
will  be  explored  and expanded to include not  only  the  production
processes included, but also the organisational issues which  underpin
design.  Health  and safety issues pertaining to the art,  design  and
technology industry will be addressed.
