Design Media Electives explore advanced topics in representation, computation, visual culture, and fabrication. The content of the elective options varies from semester to semester.SECTION DESCRIPTIONThe seminar will explore the conceptual and technical implications of computational design, digital fabrication and other emerging methodologies in architecture, art and design. Special emphasis will be placed on exploring experimental techniques related to parametric and generative software, advanced visualization techniques, material explorations using 3d printing, hybrid prototypes and simulations. The seminar will be structured around a series of topic-based software workshops culminating in the design, visualization and prototyping of a medium-scale experimental pavilion. For the final project students will fabricate a mock-up of a key detail or tectonic assembly from their pavilion.
