Description

This is a workshop based course which aims to provide the student with investigative and practical skills in the application of low voltage electricity to contemporary sculptural practice. Basic understanding of power source and linking will precede instruction in the use of small motors and lighting units. This will progress to practical exercises in the use of simple computer boards and an understanding of the incorporation of such specific technologies into practice. Emphasis will be placed on direct observations of the nude and anatomical specimens. Students will draw from the skeleton, casts and prepared specimens. A range of approaches will be covered that will encourage students to understand basic anatomical constructs. This course is designed to be relevant to a broad range of student interests from a variety of disciplines.
