NOTE:: how many entries have you made on your blog?
onlinejournal/blog + research report + attendance + participation35 marks (due final week)
the blog : This is the opportunity to compile, construct, render etc a record - the idea is to engage in the practice of concept development of a project related to your ideas regarding web design; the role of art in web / design. What is design? How is it linked to art and design? You will also keep a record of sites visited during the semester. You could do this through blogspot or wordpress.
• Details: your online journal will include:
• A wide range of images and explanation of why selected
• Record of online research including web based design AND art practice
• Research report that follows up your short presentation (600 words plus) – see below
• Research on artist / designers online. Their role online and conceptual background
• Your lab work – how it connects with your core studies
• Response to weekly readings
The blog should reflect your ongoing reflection on your creative work. Specifically:
A range of images: from mass media, books, online imagery, sketches, mockups, photos in any form that can screened, scanned etc. into the blog with notes if needed
Written work: showing you are thinking about art/dsign not simply cutting and pasting. Some kind of quick reference would be appropriate
Development/process: not necessarily step by step but at least some direction
Critical awareness: of contemporary trends in online art and its effect on design. (interconnectedness). Theorists such as Manovich are useful.
