Department
of Architecture 4.183 Architecture Design Workshop: Digitally Mediated DesignInstructor: Megan YakeleyUnits: 2-4-6 H-Level (U) Prerequisites: none What role do digital media play in your design thinking?This workshop explores the use of digital media to enhance design thinking and develop an understanding of the process of designing. The workshop will focus on the role of digital media in design, and will challenge current notions of digital media's role in architecture as a tool for presentation, for the creation of imagery, and for the production of highly precise documentation. It offers a unique opportunity to study the algorithmic approach to three dimensional synthesis. In addition, but secondary to the design emphasis, the class will give a basic understanding of the structure of computers and procedural and object oriented programming languages. No background in computer programming or computational experience is required. The emphasis of the workshop is to develop more appropriate models of computer mediated design. Students will explore the role of digital media in their own design process within the context of a project that is of personal interest.Taking this class will challenge every notion you once had about the role of digital media in architecture. |
