5 courses with the subject MAAT, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
MAAT 3040Coding Concepts 1: Expressive Computation3
This studio course serves as a fundamental creative coding experience. Students go from little to no experience with coding to proficient, expressive, software creators. Students are exposed to the creative approach of recognizing programming and computational experimentation as an art and design medium while exploring a range of practical programming skills and concepts. Topics covered include foundational coding structures, generative algorithms, random events, interactive states, basic physics, and the systematic combination of media. The class begins with a series of short technical exercises focused on fundamental principles before opening up to larger more expressive projects.
MAAT 3050Interdisciplinary Studio 1: hybrid media practices3
This studio course is an introduction to contemporary interdisciplinary art practice. Students build a cohesive body of work consisting of smaller, interconnected projects spanning multiple media, materials, and processes. Students will learn how to systematically integrate different media forms such as video, photography, sound, and code to develop engaging multimedia projects thoughtfully and deliberately. By the end of the course, students will have a deeper understanding of the intersection of various media forms, disciplines, tools, and techniques for creating powerful multimedia projects that explore the screen, respond to the site, and engage the ears.
