Web Art: Culture & Practice (GRA-0137)

Fall 2023 · GRA 0137 · Tufts University · 4 credits · Undergraduate

Survey internet art culture, while learning skills to create your own visual stories and experimental web-based art. Study web design practices and tools, explore the relationship between UX (user experience) and storytelling. Combine vector forms, typography, animation, and simple interactions to create browser-based artworks for desktop and mobile screens, with the power to engage, inspire, entertain, subvert, and inform. Projects are inspired by Net Art, Post-Internet Art, and Interactive Documentary. This course will utilize the web builder platform Cargo, Visual Studio Code and some coding, though no prior experience is necessary. A basic understanding of Adobe CC is helpful.
