The archive shows works by students from the master studies “Digital Technologies in Architecture and Design”, "MediaArchitecture" and the double-degree programme “IMAMS”. Results from the special exhibition Bauhaus.Orbits are also presented here.
Water Interaction in Parc on the Ilm
Experience and learning situations with water will be developed for the area of Parc on the Ilm in Weimar. Small architectures or interactive installations are situated alongside the river Ilm and form a sequence.
MediaArchitecture Introductory Project-Module
Winter semester 2016/17
Experience and learning situations with water will be developed for the area of Parc on the Ilm in Weimar. Small architectures or interactive installations are situated alongside the river Ilm and form a sequence.
Exhilarating experience and information about water and with water will be communicated with a media-based and polysensory concept. Water is a physical and phenomenological media. The user can experience with all senses and bodily interaction to grasp the knowledge. The experience and learning environments are for different age groups and communities. The challenge is to develop water interactions with media of space, light, sound, material or projection to design hybrid realities and situation in space. Students design a workable prototype.

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. →
From July 3 to 14, 2019, students in the MediaArchitecture course exhibited the installation "Bauhaus Orbits" in the foyer of the university library of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, which makes historical Bauhaus discourses come alive with contemporary means. In the artistic-academic project, the students classified and analyzed design and teaching concepts from Bauhaus masters such as Walter Gropius, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy and Paul Klee. They then transformed the elements of discourse practices at the Bauhaus contained in selected historical sources into an algorithmically applicable data set and integrated them into a digital network. This was reflected on the surface of the installation »Bauhaus Orbits«, the geometry of which is inspired by the historic skylight hall in the main building of the Bauhaus University Weimar.
»With the Bauhaus Orbits we want to enable users to experience the historical discourse immersively by using digital means to create a new unity of visual, auditory, tactile and intellectual experience. Students will find a form of Bauhaus discourse that is appropriate for the 21st century«, says Dr. Sabine Zierold, spokeswoman for the MediaArchitecture course. The Bauhaus Orbits project was supervised and worked on in an interdisciplinary manner by professors, staff and students from the faculties of architecture and urbanism, media, civil engineering, and art and design.
