MS 056 pz -Digital Mythologies

Institution: Pitzer

Description: In this hybrid studio + seminar course, students will create digital mythologies through short video projects and hands-on workshops supported by readings, screenings, and discussions. We will explore the relationship between the body, space, and technology by approaching the digital space as a place to perform and transform ourselves. This course explores the expansive possibilities of performance and video art practices that center, subvert, and reimagine various mythologies?folklore, pop culture, familial life, mass media?as a mechanism for critical thought and imagination. Workshops and assignments push students to experiment with subject matter and aesthetics: basic audio and video production, editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, experimental writing, and performance exercises.
