Digital imaging technologies have profoundly transformed our understanding of photography, art, and communication. This studio focuses on the capabilities and applications of these new technologies, which allow artists to envision previously impossible realities. Using images gathered on field trips around the Bay Area, students create a series of concept-based artworks while exploring the mechanics, aesthetics, and ethics of digital imaging. Assignments involve the use of traditional and digital cameras, advanced digital imaging, nonsilver processes, and large-format digital printing. Students must bring a digital SLR camera, with the manual, to the first class, and are encouraged to bring other film cameras they may have. One student per Macintosh computer.
Photography: Digital is an all-day studio.
