66-6754 Shaping Solid Light

This course explores the conceptual and technical use of light as projection, as image, and as source of illumination within the context of creating artificial spaces in installation and performance. This is a hands-on course in which students will use an expansive array of image projection, data display, and software controlled lighting technologies. Readings, discussions, and demonstrations in this course are organized to challenge the conceptual and technical assumptions about the materiality of the ephemeral image.
