Overview

Digital imaging for contemporary art is designed to develop an approach to digital imaging tools that aligns with the objectives of a contemporary art and curatorial practice. You will be introduced to digital imaging processes such as still image manipulation, moving image and various approaches to output such as printing and screen-based applications. While this unit provides a practical introduction to the basic digital imaging tools and materials there is an emphasis on the creative and experimental potential of these tools and how they are utilised within a broader creative practice. You are encouraged to develop your own creative direction alongside a critical awareness of ideas.
