Light Studio will center on the ethereal and physical character of light, as a source of inspiration and provocation. Various Industrial and Interaction design methods for engagement will be explored. There will be three distinct projects,coupled by a framework created by each student according to their own interests. Work will track according to independently defined exploration areas,with reviews and milestones coordinated as a class. The Studio will move through three contiguous phases of work, exploration/research, definition/validation and execution/refinement. Students will learn how to move from digital information to physical output, prototyping techniques,how to collaborate with people from relevant disciplines and translate design strategies into tangible, realized concepts. Technology is a material instigation for design, and this section will develop methods of jumping off into design with interactivity, technology, and fabrication as areas of exploration.
