The Critical Media Lab in downtown Kitchener is the place to be this Friday evening. Two year-end class projects will be on interactive display. Digital Playground is the final project of CS/FINE 383 Computational Art - the course jointly offered by Fine Arts and Computer Science; Codes of Conduct is the annual exhibition of the MA in Experimental Digital Media (XDM) program offered by English.
Digital Playground is an exhibition of final projects from CS/FINE 383 Computational Art. This capstone course is the final step in the Digital Art Specialization, where students from Computer Science and Fine Art engage in a set of courses designed to investigate the creative possibilities of art and technology. The interactive artworks on display will engage audiences in playful interactions using facial recognition, gestural input, neural networks and game structures.
The English department’s MA program in Experimental Digital Media (XDM) invites you to their annual XDM Exhibition. This year’s exhibition is Codes of Conduct and will feature works from students and community members that provides critical commentary on theoretical areas such as code and algorithm, our digital habits and behaviours, and other sociotechnical intersections.
