Title

Interarts Collaboration: Creating Across Boundaries

Professor

Leslie Satin

Schedule

Fr 12:30 pm - 2:50 pm Avery Arts Cntr.

Contemporary practitioners of art and performance regularly edge their work past conventional definitions. At the same time, artists come together to make pieces whose resonance extends beyond their individual components. In this workshop, students will create work that moves across definitions and genres or that calls for joint creative participation, for background and inspiration focussing on two models of 1960's New York City: Fluxus and the Judson Dance Theater. We will read historical and critical texts about their work; develop studio activities as well as individual and collective projects derived from their philosophies and practices; and formulate work based on Scores (as articulated by urban planner Lawrence Halprin and choreographer Anna Halprin. We will encourage students to deepen their connections to familiar modes of work and to try their hands at new forms. Readings include essays by Kristine Stiles (from the exhibition catalogue In the Spirit of Fluxus); excerpts from Lawrence Halprin's The RSVP Cycles and Anna Halprin's Moving Towards Life; and essays by Sally Banes, Carolyn Brown, John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Deborah Jowitt, Kenneth King, Yvonne Rainer, and Carolee Schneeman. Open to Integrated Arts Students and other moderated students of the arts.

Title

Integrated Arts: Major Conference

Professors

Bob Holman & Jeff Sichel

Schedule

Wed 11:00 am - 1:50 pm STUDIO B

The Major Conference is required of Integrated Arts majors/concentrators, and is usually taken in the junior or senior year, although others may petition the instructor. It is a course in doing and making art, in reintegrating art into life. This is where theory is tamed by action, where action is a laboratory for theory. We will discuss all aspects of the job of being an artist: inspiration, research, economics, social utility/inutility, politics, education, technology, fun, and suffering. Participants must have a project in mind which engages at least two arts; your project will be on the table for the class's input, and will reach a finished form -- performance, video, website, concert, book, et al -- by semester's end. Additionally, we will create and present a collaborative group piece. Guest faculty will be on hand to guide us through arts disciplines as needed, and visits to art events, both on and off campus, may be required. Please email a description of your proposed integrated arts project to the instructor prior to registration, to: [email protected].

Electronic Networks: Art and the Internet

Professor

Jacqueline Goss

Schedule

Thu 9:30 am - 12:30 pm HDR 106

Cross-listed: Film

This course will examine the electronic networks of the internet, by exploring a variety of information systems, virtual communities and on-line art projects. These various worlds, each as distinct interactive models, will be examined and critiqued through selected readings culled from critical theory, policy, history, and aesthetics. Each student will be expected to spend quality time on-line, to tackle several technologies as they apply to activities on the net and to design and mount an on-line project.
