New nature in park on the Ilm
The aim of the project is to make aware of our nature in park at the Ilm in the context of climate change. Students sense the natural environment and make the invisible data of energy flow perceivable. The task is to intensify the multisensory perception of natural phenomena. Record sound, sense water data (flow rate, temperature gradients, pollution) and store light, observe generation and degeneration of nature and present a “new image” of nature and natural processes.
Mobile media installations will create a special atmosphere related to the natural and architectural context in the park at river Ilm. The media installation should add a new layer of meaningful information to create an interesting environment for interactive communication. Users should become present and be involved in the presentation of the spatial installation through different pattern of communication. The design of a multisensory space, pavilion or other special environment is part of the design project.
MediaArchitecture Introductory Project-Module
Winter semester 2020/21
The project is structured in three parts with online plenum review and consultation in presence.
In the first part students will get an introduction into the field of MediaArchitcture and analyse and present exemplary artistic reference projects. They will research in literature about new artistic and scientific perspectives on nature. Students will reflect about their personal experience and train their personal perception with exercises. Parallel to the research students will learn in seminars to work and experiment with different media tools and technologies. In the first plenum the first concept idea will be presented.
In the second part students analyse places in park at the Ilm and document them with drawings, photos or videos. They will develop context-based design-oriented concepts for the mobile, interactive installation. Students will combine their concepts with different technical systems or devices and integrate them in the interactive installation. Invisible Information and data of natural systems related to the context become perceptible for the user. In the second plenum the concept idea is applied with media tools and related to the physical context.
Finally functional prototypes will be designed as scaled models up to scale 1:1 and will be tested in the physical context. Students will test, evaluate and document the usability. The prototype is a perception instrument to intensify the communication and will be presented in the third plenum. The final presentation of the hole design concept will be presented with video documentation and artistic picture language and a logbook shows the representation of the design process in the hole semester.

Studio Projects
Studios are the main semester projects in terms of workload and ECTS. Students are encouraged to develop artistic, experimental work following the research-based studio outline. IMAMS students in Buffalo join the Situated Technologies Research Group, one of four research studios at the core of UB's architectural graduate studies. Students in Weimar join the MediaArchitecture studio as part of their foundation semester. →
Seminars
Seminars cover a broad range of research based, technical and/or artistic practice. The general topic outline is flexible as defined by the study regulations. Students are generally encouraged to attend a balanced mix of media as well as architecture seminars. Between both faculties at both universities is where the interdisciplinary nature of IMAMS really comes to light. →
Thesis Projects
Thesis projects are undertaken after the completion of all mandatory coursework and are handed in at both universities under the supervision of interfaculty staff. A general differentiation is made between scientific / research-based and artistic / experimental theses. Further details on thesis and academic degrees here. →
»Bauhaus Orbits« visualisiert historische Bauhaus-Diskurse
Die Installation „Bauhaus Orbits“ ermöglicht eine raumgreifende Projektion mit 6 Beamern. Studierende im Studiengang MediaArchitecture stellten vom 3. bis 14. Juli 2019 im Foyer der Universitätsbibliothek der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar die Installation „Bauhaus Orbits“ aus, die historische Bauhaus-Diskurse mit zeitgenössischen Mitteln erlebbar macht.
In dem künstlerisch-akademischen Projekt haben die Studierenden Entwurfs- und Lehrkonzepte von Bauhaus-Meistern wie Walter Gropius, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy und Paul Klee klassifiziert und analysiert. Daraufhin haben sie die in ausgewählten historischen Quellen enthaltenen Elemente der Diskurspraktiken am Bauhaus in einen algorithmisch anwendbaren Datensatz transformiert und in ein digitales Netzwerk integriert. Dieses bildete sich auf der Oberfläche der Installation »Bauhaus Orbits« ab, deren Geometrie vom historischen Oberlichtsaal im Hauptgebäude der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar inspiriert ist. »Mit den Bauhaus Orbits möchten wir Nutzerinnen und Nutzern ein immersives Erleben des historischen Diskurses ermöglichen, indem wir mit digitalen Mitteln eine neue Einheit von visueller, auditiver, taktiler und intellektueller Erfahrung herstellen. Die Studierenden finden damit eine für das 21. Jahrhundert angemessene Form des Bauhaus-Diskurses«, so Dr. Sabine Zierold, Sprecherin des Studiengangs MediaArchitecture. Das Projekt Bauhaus Orbits wurde interdisziplinär betreut und bearbeitet durch Professorinnen und Professoren, Mitarbeitende und Studierende der Fakultäten Architektur und Urbanistik, Medien, Bauingenieurwesen sowie Kunst und Gestaltung.
