Dynamic Media in Sculpture interdisciplinary sculpture is designed to explore the application of both standard and emerging technologies in the creation and manipulation of innovative new forms in sculpture. Students will gain practical, hand-on experience and develop both a solid historical nd theoretical background in the field of sculpture and technology to engage the potentials of new technologies in art making. Learning to work with the important ideas behind art and technology, students will gain an important understanding of work encompassing trans-disciplinary sculpture in order to pursue ideas that are larger than the scope of any one sculptural medium. Students are gfiven a broad interdisciplinary grounding in the skills, concepts, and hands-on experiences to the froms and techniques central to technologically based art making.
