This studio course is designed for all creative disciplines—from writers to designers to artists—who want to explore how writing and design collaboratively create meaning. Contemporary publication design practices as well as historic forms such as the manifesto will be explored as we interrogate how to place, align, squish, illustrate, and arrange image and text in space (on a page, poster, or hybrid forms) utilizing the Risograph as the primary mode of production.This is an ideal course for THESIS students across the college, offering robust making sessions on Saturdays during the term. Conscientious and dynamic research is required outside of class meeting time to support the Saturday making sessions. These long studio days will offer students the chance to establish a workflow focused on making physical work AND exploring the intellectual and contextual underpinnings of their work in a multidisciplinary and discussion-based setting.The studio will focus on student thesis work, exploring personal projects, and/or development of instructor-provided prompts through making. There will be 1:1 and class critiques to review student work, and a final show and discussion of student work in the Writers Studio in December.
