Section II: The Course
Course Description:
This is a joint course given both in the Philosophy
Program and in the Electronic
Imaging Program which attempts to bridge the gap between
the rapidly expanding
field of visual technology and the traditional humanities
(philosophy of art, art history,
fine arts, etc.). Emphasis is placed on the attempt to
develop a new or different
aesthetic (and critical language) which acknowledges and
integrates the new
electronic technologies. The course begins with more
traditional problems and then
moves towards problems posed by the so-called visual turn
brought about by visual
technologies.
