This studio course introduces students to building circuits, programming with Arduino, and integrating human-computer and human-object interaction into sculptures and installations. Students will do technical assignments and self-driven projects based on research they find personally interesting. Research, experiments, and projects will prompt consideration of relationships between the digital and the physical realm; as well as the relationships between objects, bodies, technologies, spaces, cultures, and societies.
