(Offered as ARHA 106 and FAMS 106) Introduction to computer programming for studio artists. In this course, students will explore the qualities intrinsic to artistic expression with computers. By writing code to generate text and graphics, students explore such concepts as nonlinearity, indeterminacy, glitch, and emergence. Accompanying critical discussion will consider key practitioners in the field. Through progressive weekly projects, students will gain a foundation for working with code in art. Designed for students with little to no programming experience. 

An introduction to two- and three-dimensional studio disciplines through hands-on engagement with materials supplemented by lectures, demonstrations and readings. Students will work through a variety of projects exploring drawing, sculpture, painting and hybrid forms. Work will be developed based on direct observation, memory, imagination and improvisation. Formal and conceptual concerns will be an integral aspect of the development of studio work.

(Offered as ARCH 369, EUST 369, GERM 369, and THDA 281) This research seminar will explore conceptions of time as they have informed and influenced thought and creativity in the fields of cultural studies, literature, architecture, urban studies, philosophy, neuroscience, performance, and the visual, electronic, and time-based arts.

(Offered as ARCH 301 and ARHA 301) This course is for students who want to create an in-depth design project. Students will use a variety of approaches, including precedent research, analysis, and graphic exploration as they take a design through various iterations from conception to more detailed resolution.  Foregrounding issues of architecture, landscape architecture, and the built environment, all students will have the opportunity to develop their own distinct design voice.

(Offered as ARHA 293, ARCH 293, and ASLC 293) 

(Offered as ARCH 251 and ARHA 251) What can we learn about architecture from graphic narrative representations, real and imagined, of cities and buildings? In exploring this question, the course studies how architecture and urban spaces have been traditionally represented throughout a century and a half of modern graphic narrative. This course reflects upon what those representations reveal regarding who is included and how, among other issues.
