Course Description
An intermediate production / studio course that engages with media practices outside of the traditional single-channel film or videotapes made for broadcast or screening. New genres and hybrid media forms including installation, performance, and tactical media are explored through a series of readings, lectures, presentations, and creative assignments in both individual and group projects. This class encourages a critical, creative approach to the medium, non-traditional solutions, and contextualization within the histories and methodologies of performance art, site-specific works, live art, body art, experimental films and video, net art, culture jamming, and other interactive hybrid forms. This course is especially recommended for Media Studies majors who are considering creating a media installation, performance, or other hybrid forms as their Capstone (thesis) project, as well as student in other fields (e.g. Studio Art, Dance, Theatre, Music) who are interested in these and other hybrid media forms.
Students planning to enroll in this course should have taken one of the following courses as a prerequisite: Introduction to Video Art (MS82 or equivalent). Introduction to Digital Imaging or equivalent, and introductory-level studio art course in a relevant genre such as sculpture and photography.

Statement of Student Learning Outcome
By the end of this course, students ideally are expected:
- To experiment with and become familiar with non-tradition forms of media production and exhibition;
- To acquire a sense of the historical context of these non-traditional forms, including performance art, tactical media, body art, and others within their own media practices;
- To understand the concepts of site-specificity, embodiment, duration, detournement, culture jamming, relational aesthetics, and other relevant theories, ideas, and practices; and to be able to test out some of these ideas in short production projects;
- To be able to work and learn in both individual and group contexts;
- To develop skills in presentation and critique of their creative projects, both as presenter and critic, and in individual as well as group situations.

Course Organization
Our course work for the semester is focused on five topics: body, space, time, action, and community. We will normally spend three weeks on each topic. Within this period, I will introduce the topic in the first class with a combination of lecture, presentation of artist projects and documentation, discussion of reading assignments; the second class meeting will be divided into two parts—the first is a student-led session on the topic, where 2-3 students will design a 1-1.5 hrs. class; the second part of the class will be a lab when students can meet individually with the instructor, work in groups, or undergo technical and equipment training. The third class will be a presentation and group critique/discussion of student projects, led by instructor and/or students.
Our class activities will be centered around student projects, reading assignments, in-class screenings and presentations,
group and individual critiques, and technical demonstrations. Both individual
and collaborative projects will be assigned. Selected guest speakers (filmmakers, media artists, scholars, etc.) may join us remotely via Zoom, or in person, schedule and budget permitting, depending on level of interest expressed and their availability. I may assign events (required or recommended) outside of the class meeting time, and will try my best to balance out with class time.
Laptop computers with an internet connection and appropriate software, sometimes smart phones and other mobile digital devices can be used in class only for class-related activities (e.g. taking notes or relevant web searches). I ask students to agree to these conditions for class: no recording of audio, photo, or video unless pre-approved by instructor; no emails, texting, messaging, checking your social media accounts and other non-class related activities on your device. These and other diversions are not acceptable during class time, and will lower your grade.

Attendance
Attendance and participation of all classes is required. Do not miss class
or arrive late! Your weekly attendance and active participation is central to the class’s success and to your success in the class. Documented medical or family emergencies will be excused, and you have one “free passe” for when you need a personal day. All other absences will negatively impact your total grade percentage by one point. Please note, this attendance policy is separate from absences related to Covid-19 isolation/quarantine protocols, which are outlined below. Attendance is determined by when I take roll.
Class Participation
Your active, well-prepared participation in class discussions is essential
to creating a dynamic (i.e. not boring!) learning environment. Although
you will not receive a letter grade for class participation, it will figure
into your final grade based on my observations.
We may study sexually explicit, political, and otherwise challenging
material in this course. These are not included for shock value, but are
legitimate investigations of controversial subject matters in media. You
are certainly encouraged to explore difficult and complex subject matters
in your work, and you should be prepared to consider these issues intellectually
and emotionally. Our class is a safe space in which students can express
their beliefs and opinions. You always have a voice, but please be respectful
of others as well. Abusive language and behavior are not be tolerated.
Open-mindedness is encouraged!

Class Assignments and Projects
Students will complete a class project for each topic, except for the one they are teaching the student-led class in. Students are allowed one self-initiated collaboration. Other class project guidelines are as follows:
1. |
Class projects are created in response to the topic at hand. They should respond creatively to the reading assignments, screenings, presentations and class discussions around that topic. Each students must hand in a one page proposal for instructor approval by the second class of the three-week period. The proposal should contain the following information:
- The format, anticipated duration, site, and technical needs of your project;
- How are you responding to the topic in this project? Reference class readings, important concepts and theories, works by other artists you have seen or read about in class—the the more specific you are, the better. Make an argument about why your approach and methodology is an appropriate and compelling response to the topic;
- The presentation format of your project - how will you present your project for the critique? Will you show documentation (for projects that are durational, site-specific, or otherwise not possible to present in class) or present the project in class (ideal for short performances) Please indicate how long will your presentation take so I can schedule the class accordingly.
- Any drawings, diagrams, installation plans, photographs, and digital images that can help convey your idea(s) for the project.
|
2. |
Topic 5: Community will be explored through a class collaborative project addressing the concept of relational aesthetics, format to be determined. Presentation of this project can coincide with the Media Studies end-of-the-year presentations and screenings |
3. |
Student-led class - guidelines and criteria |
Unless an extension is approved by myself in advance
of the due date, your grade are reduced by one letter grade (i.e. B to C)
per class day your project is late. You are encouraged to meet with
me individually during my office hours to discuss your assignments, your
grades, and your overall performance in class. I am always open to suggestions
and feedback!

• |
3 Class Projects - 15% each (45 % total) |
• |
Student-led class - 15% |
• |
Collaborative class project - 15 % |
• |
Class participation* 25% |
* Your general performance in class including participation, attendance,
and punctuality, except in the special cases listed above, such as if

Generally, outstanding ('A') students in this class have good attendance
and completed all their assignments on time. They are consistently well
prepared for class, and actively participate in and advance our discussions
with pertinent information, questions, and observations. Their work demonstrate
their ability to innovate and respond to the topic at hand, awareness of the issues addressed by and the historical context for the media works and genres they are referencing, as well as their ability to articulate
their observations and analyses in a clear and concise manner. Only letter
grades are given out in this class.
Academic Accommodations
If you have a disability for which you are or may be requesting an accommodation, you are encouraged to contact both your faculty and the academic support service of your home campus by email at the beginning of the semester if you have not already registered for accommodations. A student’s home campus is responsible for establishing and providing accommodations. You must contact your home institution to establish accommodations. Below is a list of coordinators:
CMC: disabilityservices@cmc.edu

Extra Credit
Students are
encouraged toattend screenings, conferences, lectures, exhibitions and
web events related to this course. Write a two-page (typed and double-spaced)
report of the event or activity. Incorporate the event's relevance to
the class as well as your personal responses to it. Proof of attendance
is required (keep your ticket stubs, programs, etc.) Students are allowed
two extra credit papers. Announcements for events of interest to this
class are done in the first 5 mins. of each class.
Questions About Grading
I try my best to make my grading criteria as clear as possible,
and you are welcome to come and discuss your grades and your class performance
with me. However, I only consider legitimate concerns, and be aware that
your grade is as likely to go down as it is to go up after I reassess
your assignment. I do not tolerate haggling, bribing, threats, and any
other pointless arguments. I consider all aspects of your performance
before I assign a grade, please respect my assessment as I respect your
efforts.
COVID-19 Policies
The COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be an evolving one. Our goal will be to keep each other safe, and accommodations will be put in place to support this. These may include individual meetings with the professor, course notes, recorded sessions, or temporary pivot to online instruction, as appropriate. If you learn that you have come into close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, or if you are experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms, please let your professor know. If you test positive, you will not be allowed to attend class. If you are required to isolate/quarantine, accommodations will be provided. Absences related to COVID-19 protocols do not count towards the course absence policy. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any needs related to the COVID-19 procedures or concerns about classroom safety.
The COVID-19 policies are subject to modification throughout the semester based on current protocols. Students are required to follow all current protocols for the class and all class related activities. The links to the campus COVID protocols are as follows:
