==Description==<br />
'''Critical VR Lab II – Lab Work''' will give participants the possibility to work in the Digital Bauhaus Lab, after receiving an introduction to the Corona hygiene regulations.<br />
Groups of maximal two students can choose between three time slots and work individually on two VR systems (HTC Vive + HighSpeed PC). Therefore, it will be possible for six students to work in the Digital Bauhaus Lab every week and with maximal 12 participants each student will be able to work in the Lab every second week. It will also be possible for participants to borrow one of five OculusGO VR glasses as well as one of three Ricoh Theta 360 cameras and use them to work on projects outside of the Digital Bauhaus Lab.<br />
The course emphasises on artistic and opposing ways of working with Virtual Reality concepts. It’s aim is to establish individual approaches to VR, a challenging medium which offers artists new possibilities for expression and intercultural communication, especially at times of the Corona Crisis which creates new challenges to the way we interact with each other. Please watch the video for more information.<br />

==Description==<br />
<br />
It’s exciting that interactive media such as the Internet creates new social spaces that give us the opportunity to validate identity aspects communicatively, to design them interactively and to redesign them. In these spaces, aspects of identity can be exemplified, tested, simulated, practised and made public. Through communication via the Internet, processes of transmediation also take place that can help to gain a better understanding of our present time.<br />
<br />
Digital media technologies now permeate all areas of life: They transform the cultural and creative sector and the economic system as well as politics, science, civil society and everyday practices. <br />
<br />
That's why artistic work shouldn't be used as an observation of the media, but as an examination of digital cultures. Digital cultures encompass both the technological conditions and artifacts as well as the systems and processes of perception, meaning and communication.<br />
<br />
Strolling through the digital spaces of the Internet, in particular milieu-specific socialization spaces of visual practices, means dealing with the everyday behavior on social media platforms with an observant and analytical consciousness. The concept of strolling, which Walter Benjamin introduced in the 20th century using the example of Parisian boulevard life, can also be transferred to the digital world. With that theory in mind, we will focus on the conditions of identity formation and communication of belonging in various milieus of the Internet. <br />
<br />
The Internet no longer exists as a niche of an alternative or separated world, but has intrinsically grown together with the real living and cultural spaces of our society via the omnipresence of stationary and mobile devices. <br />
What transformation processes occur when social interaction online is transferred into an immersive virtual space?<br />
<br />
VRChat is a Free to play Massively Multipayer Online Game and allows players to use 3D avatars to interact with other players in a virtual world. In contrast to open-world games such as Second Life or Minecraft, VRChat offers the possibility to experience immersive spatial impressions via VR interfaces and to interact with each other through body movements and gestures. <br />
<br />
In our blockmodule workshop we will explore this socialization space as a flâneur and create our own avatars and places of encounter through which we can interact with other users in the virtual world.<br />

==Description==<br />
While looking at online platforms like YouTube or Vimeo you might have come across videos that could be described as video essays. A video essay is a piece of video content that, much like a written essay, advances an argument. Video essays take advantage of the structure and language of film to create a thesis statement. While the general concept has its roots in academia, it has grown dramatically in popularity with the beginning of online video sharing platforms.<br />
<br />
As a relatively new media form, video essays have yet to conform to any structural guidelines. At first glance a video essay could be described as an online video which cuts together footage from one or more films in order to reveal new insights about them. But when looking further you realise, that it doesn’t always have to be about the original content. Footage from different sources can also be used to illustrate an argument that is not directly concerned with the meanings or intensions the original material is referring to. This is also what makes this form of analytic framework interesting. There aren’t any rules, or rather there is no firm set of such rules. Video essayists tend to make up the rules as they go along. <br />
<br />
In the course we want to take the concept of a video essay and translate it to an immersive environment. How can we work with found footage like pictures, film, sound, 3D objects or text for example in a virtual space, created with the help of VR-glasses like the HTC Vive ? How can we illustrate an argument in a 3-dimensional world based on found footage? The practical part will be an Introduction to the game engine Unity 3D and an introduction to working with HTC Vive VR-glasses. Furthermore, students will work on their individual immersive essays that will be presented at the end of the semester.<br />

That's why artistic work shouldn't be used as an observation of the media, but as an examination of digital cultures. Digital cultures encompass both the technological conditions and artifacts as well as the systems and processes of perception, meaning and communication.<br />
<br />
Strolling through the digital spaces of the Internet, in particular milieu-specific socialization spaces of visual practices, means dealing with the everyday behavior on social media platforms with an observant and analytical consciousness. The concept of strolling, which Walter Benjamin introduced in the 20th century using the example of Parisian boulevard life, can also be transferred to the digital world. With that theory in mind, we will focus on the conditions of identity formation and communication of belonging in various milieus of the Internet. <br />
<br />
The Internet no longer exists as a niche of an alternative or separated world, but has intrinsically grown together with the real living and cultural spaces of our society via the omnipresence of stationary and mobile devices. <br />
What transformation processes occur when social interaction online is transferred into an immersive virtual space?<br />
<br />
VRChat is a Free to play Massively Multipayer Online Game and allows players to use 3D avatars to interact with other players in a virtual world. In contrast to open-world games such as Second Life or Minecraft, VRChat offers the possibility to experience immersive spatial impressions via VR interfaces and to interact with each other through body movements and gestures. <br />
<br />
In our blockmodule workshop we will explore this socialization space as a flâneur and create our own avatars and places of encounter through which we can interact with other users in the virtual world.<br />

==Description==<br />
<br />
It’s exciting that interactive media such as the Internet creates new social spaces that give us the opportunity to validate identity aspects communicatively, to design them interactively and to redesign them. In these spaces, aspects of identity can be exemplified, tested, simulated, practised and made public. Through communication via the Internet, processes of transmediation also take place that can help to gain a better understanding of our present time.<br />

<div>Lecturer: [[Jörg Brinkmann]]<br><br />
Credits: 6 [[ECTS]], 4 [[SWS]]<br><br />
Date: Thursdays, 13:15 – 16:00<br> <br />
Venue: [[GMU:Performance Platform|Performance Platform]], Digital Bauhaus Lab (Room 001)<br><br />
First meeting: 20.10.22, 13:15<br />
<br />
==Description==<br />
While looking at online platforms like YouTube or Vimeo you might have come across videos that could be described as video essays. A video essay is a piece of video content that, much like a written essay, advances an argument. Video essays take advantage of the structure and language of film to create a thesis statement. While the general concept has its roots in academia, it has grown dramatically in popularity with the beginning of online video sharing platforms.<br />
<br />
As a relatively new media form, video essays have yet to conform to any structural guidelines. At first glance a video essay could be described as an online video which cuts together footage from one or more films in order to reveal new insights about them. But when looking further you realise, that it doesn’t always have to be about the original content. Footage from different sources can also be used to illustrate an argument that is not directly concerned with the meanings or intensions the original material is referring to. This is also what makes this form of analytic framework interesting. There aren’t any rules, or rather there is no firm set of such rules. Video essayists tend to make up the rules as they go along. <br />
<br />
In the course we want to take the concept of a video essay and translate it to an immersive environment. How can we work with found footage like pictures, film, sound, 3D objects or text for example in a virtual space, created with the help of VR-glasses like the HTC Vive ? How can we illustrate an argument in a 3-dimensional world based on found footage? The practical part will be an Introduction to the game engine Unity 3D and an introduction to working with HTC Vive VR-glasses. Furthermore, students will work on their individual immersive essays that will be presented at the end of the semester.<br />

Inspired by our wanderings and encounters we will frame our own digital selfies or self portraits as digital performance pieces and exhibit them at the summaery2022. There will also be the chance to exhibit the work in a planned exhibition titled "Post Physical Playgrounds - Eine NFT-Kunst Ausstellung" <br />
<br />
Students are also invited to attend the NFT workshop, that gives an introduction to the history of NFTs, and will explain the use of wallets, minting and clean NFTs. The Workshop will happen on the 7th and 8th of April, from 10:30 - 18:00 at Digital Bauhaus Lab. If you want to join the Workshop, please write an email to: joerg.brinkmann@uni-weimar.de<br />

Footage from different sources can also be used to illustrate an argument that is not directly concerned with the meanings or intensions the original material is referring to. This is also what makes this form of analytic framework interesting. There aren’t any rules, or rather there is no firm set of such rules. Video essayists tend to make up the rules as they go along. <br />
<br />
In the course we want to take the concept of a video essay and translate it to an immersive environment. How can we work with found footage like pictures, film, sound, 3D objects or text for example in a virtual space, created with the help of VR-glasses like the HTC Vive ? How can we illustrate an argument in a 3-dimensional world based on found footage? The practical part will be an Introduction to the game engine Unity 3D and an introduction to working with HTC Vive VR-glasses. Furthermore, students will work on their individual immersive essays that will be presented at the end of the semester.<br />

==Description==<br />
While looking at online platforms like YouTube or Vimeo you might have come across videos that could be described as video essays. A video essay is a piece of video content that, much like a written essay, advances an argument. Video essays take advantage of the structure and language of film to create a thesis statement. While the general concept has its roots in academia, it has grown dramatically in popularity with the beginning of online video sharing platforms.<br />
<br />
As a relatively new media form, video essays have yet to conform to any structural guidelines. At first glance a video essay could be described as an online video which cuts together footage from one or more films in order to reveal new insights about them. But when looking further you realise, that it doesn’t always have to be about the original content. Footage from different sources can also be used to illustrate an argument that is not directly concerned with the meanings or intensions the original material is referring to. This is also what makes this form of analytic framework interesting. There aren’t any rules, or rather there is no firm set of such rules.

==Description==<br />
<br />
It’s exciting that interactive media such as the Internet creates new social spaces that give us the opportunity to validate identity aspects communicatively, to design them interactively and to redesign them. In these spaces, aspects of identity can be exemplified, tested, simulated, practised and made public. Through communication via the Internet, processes of transmediation also take place that can help to gain a better understanding of our present time.<br />
<br />
Digital media technologies now permeate all areas of life: They transform the cultural and creative sector and the economic system as well as politics, science, civil society and everyday practices. <br />
<br />
That's why artistic work shouldn't be used as an observation of the media, but as an examination of digital cultures. Digital cultures encompass both the technological conditions and artifacts as well as the systems and processes of perception, meaning and communication.<br />
<br />
Strolling through the digital spaces of the Internet, in particular milieu-specific socialization spaces of visual practices, means dealing with the everyday behavior on social media platforms with an observant and analytical consciousness. The concept of strolling, which Walter Benjamin introduced in the 20th century using the example of Parisian boulevard life, can also be transferred to the digital world. With that theory in mind, we will focus on the conditions of identity formation and communication of belonging in various milieus of the Internet. <br />
<br />
The Internet no longer exists as a niche of an alternative or separated world, but has intrinsically grown together with the real living and cultural spaces of our society via the omnipresence of stationary and mobile devices. <br />
What transformation processes occur when social interaction online is transferred into an immersive virtual space?<br />
<br />
VRChat is a Free to play Massively Multipayer Online Game and allows players to use 3D avatars to interact with other players in a virtual world. In contrast to open-world games such as Second Life or Minecraft, VRChat offers the possibility to experience immersive spatial impressions via VR interfaces and to interact with each other through body movements and gestures. <br />
<br />
In our blockmodule workshop we will explore this socialization space as a flâneur and create our own avatars and places of encounter through which we can interact with other users in the virtual world.<br />
<br />
Inspired by our wanderings and encounters we will frame our own digital selfies or self portraits as digital performance pieces and exhibit them at the summaery2022. There will also be the chance to exhibit the work in a planned exhibition titled "Post Physical Playgrounds - Eine NFT-Kunst Ausstellung" <br />
<br />
Students are also invited to attend the NFT workshop, that gives an introduction to the history of NFTs, and will explain the use of wallets, minting and clean NFTs. The Workshop will happen on the 7th and 8th of April, from 10:30 - 18:00 at Digital Bauhaus Lab. If you want to join the Workshop, please write an email to: joerg.brinkmann@uni-weimar.de<br />
<br />
==Recommended Requirements==<br />
Applicants should have a basic knowledge of working with Unity and a laptop. It is preferred but not explicitly required to have accomplished Critical VR Lab I.<br />

==Description==<br />
'''Critical XR Lab''' is a beginner module that offers an Introduction to the Unity game engine. The course will be taught in the Digital Bauhaus Lab, where participants will be able to experiment with different virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies and concepts. <br />
<br />
'''The course will be taught in two phases:''' <br><br />
In phase one participants will be introduced to an overview of the Unity interface and different techniques (Lights, Skyboxes, Prefabs, Timeline, Animation) and technologies (VR headsets, 360 video, AR apps). <br />
The learning phase will be accompanied by lectures and discussions that are focused on finding strategies for dealing with the possibilities and challenges of working artistically with Game Engines and VR/AR technologies. At the end of phase one, students will have created an experience with Unity.<br />
<br />
In phase two students are challenged to reflect, discuss, rethink and rework their Unity experience, based on individual research and experienced insights. The course emphasises on artistic and opposing ways of working with XR concepts. It’s aim is to establish individual approaches to VR/AR; challenging new mediums that offer artists new possibilities for expression and intercultural communication.<br />
<br />
==Recommended Requirements==<br />
No previous knowledge of Unity or other 3D software is needed, but applicants should have access to a laptop and headphones.<br />
<br />
==Criteria for passing==<br />
In order to successfully participate you will have to develop and document your own project on the GMU Wiki. Also, complete the exercises and comply with the submission deadlines<br />

==Description==<br />
<br />
It’s exciting that interactive media such as the Internet creates new social spaces that give us the opportunity to validate identity aspects communicatively, to design them interactively and to redesign them. In these spaces, aspects of identity can be exemplified, tested, simulated, practised and made public. Through communication via the Internet, processes of transmediation also take place that can help to gain a better understanding of our present time.<br />
<br />
Digital media technologies now permeate all areas of life: They transform the cultural and creative sector and the economic system as well as politics, science, civil society and everyday practices. <br />
<br />
That's why artistic work shouldn't be used as an observation of the media, but as an examination of digital cultures. Digital cultures encompass both the technological conditions and artifacts as well as the systems and processes of perception, meaning and communication.<br />
<br />
Strolling through the digital spaces of the Internet, in particular milieu-specific socialization spaces of visual practices, means dealing with the everyday behavior on social media platforms with an observant and analytical consciousness. The concept of strolling, which Walter Benjamin introduced in the 20th century using the example of Parisian boulevard life, can also be transferred to the digital world. With that theory in mind, we will focus on the conditions of identity formation and communication of belonging in various milieus of the Internet. <br />
<br />
The Internet no longer exists as a niche of an alternative or separated world, but has intrinsically grown together with the real living and cultural spaces of our society via the omnipresence of stationary and mobile devices. <br />
What transformation processes occur when social interaction online is transferred into an immersive virtual space?<br />
<br />
VRChat is a Free to play Massively Multipayer Online Game and allows players to use 3D avatars to interact with other players in a virtual world. In contrast to open-world games such as Second Life or Minecraft, VRChat offers the possibility to experience immersive spatial impressions via VR interfaces and to interact with each other through body movements and gestures. <br />
<br />
In our blockmodule workshop we will explore this socialization space as a flâneur and create our own avatars and places of encounter through which we can interact with other users in the virtual world.<br />
<br />
Inspired by our wanderings and encounters we will frame our own digital selfies or self portraits as digital performance pieces and exhibit them at the summaery2022. There will also be the chance to exhibit the work in a planned exhibition titled "Post Physical Playgrounds - Eine NFT-Kunst Ausstellung" <br />
<br />
Students are also invited to attend the NFT workshop, that gives an introduction to the history of NFTs, and will explain the use of wallets, minting and clean NFTs. The Workshop will happen on the 7th and 8th of April, from 10:30 - 18:00 at Digital Bauhaus Lab. If you want to join the Workshop, please write an email to: joerg.brinkmann@uni-weimar.de<br />
<br />
==Recommended Requirements==<br />
Applicants should have a basic knowledge of working with Unity and a laptop. It is preferred but not explicitly required to have accomplished Critical VR Lab I.<br />
<br />
==Criteria for passing==<br />
In order to successfully participate you will have to develop and document your own project on the GMU Wiki. Also, complete the exercises and comply with the submission deadlines<br />

'''The course will be taught in two phases:''' <br><br />
In phase one participants will be introduced to an overview of the Unity interface and different techniques (Lights, Skyboxes, Prefabs, Timeline, Animation) and technologies (VR headsets, 360 video, AR apps). <br />
The learning phase will be accompanied by lectures and discussions that are focused on finding strategies for dealing with the possibilities and challenges of working artistically with Game Engines and VR/AR technologies. At the end of phase one, students will have created an experience with Unity.<br />
<br />
In phase two students are challenged to reflect, discuss, rethink and rework their Unity experience, based on individual research and experienced insights. The course emphasises on artistic and opposing ways of working with XR concepts. It’s aim is to establish individual approaches to VR/AR; challenging new mediums that offer artists new possibilities for expression and intercultural communication.<br />

==Description==<br />
<br />
It’s exciting that interactive media such as the Internet creates new social spaces that give us the opportunity to validate identity aspects communicatively, to design them interactively and to redesign them. In these spaces, aspects of identity can be exemplified, tested, simulated, practised and made public. Through communication via the Internet, processes of transmediation also take place that can help to gain a better understanding of our present time.<br />
<br />
Digital media technologies now permeate all areas of life: They transform the cultural and creative sector and the economic system as well as politics, science, civil society and everyday practices. <br />
<br />
That's why artistic work shouldn't be used as an observation of the media, but as an examination of digital cultures. Digital cultures encompass both the technological conditions and artifacts as well as the systems and processes of perception, meaning and communication.<br />
<br />
Strolling through the digital spaces of the Internet, in particular milieu-specific socialization spaces of visual practices, means dealing with the everyday behavior on social media platforms with an observant and analytical consciousness. The concept of strolling, which Walter Benjamin introduced in the 20th century using the example of Parisian boulevard life, can also be transferred to the digital world. With that theory in mind, we will focus on the conditions of identity formation and communication of belonging in various milieus of the Internet. <br />
<br />
The Internet no longer exists as a niche of an alternative or separated world, but has intrinsically grown together with the real living and cultural spaces of our society via the omnipresence of stationary and mobile devices. <br />
What transformation processes occur when social interaction online is transferred into an immersive virtual space?<br />
<br />
VRChat is a Free to play Massively Multipayer Online Game and allows players to use 3D avatars to interact with other players in a virtual world. In contrast to open-world games such as Second Life or Minecraft, VRChat offers the possibility to experience immersive spatial impressions via VR interfaces and to interact with each other through body movements and gestures. <br />
<br />
In our blockmodule workshop we will explore this socialization space as a flâneur and create our own avatars and places of encounter through which we can interact with other users in the virtual world.<br />
<br />
Inspired by our wanderings and encounters we will frame our own digital selfies or self portraits as digital performance pieces and exhibit them at the summaery2022. There will also be the chance to exhibit the work in a planned exhibition titled "Post Physical Playgrounds - Eine NFT-Kunst Ausstellung" <br />
<br />
Students are also invited to attend the NFT workshop, that gives an introduction to the history of NFTs, and will explain the use of wallets, minting and clean NFTs. The Workshop will happen on the 7th and 8th of April, from 10:30 - 18:00 at Digital Bauhaus Lab. If you want to join the Workshop, please write an email to: joerg.brinkmann@uni-weimar.de<br />
<br />
==Recommended Requirements==<br />
Applicants should have a basic knowledge of working with Unity and a laptop. It is preferred but not explicitly required to have accomplished Critical VR Lab I.<br />

The learning phase will be accompanied by lectures and discussions that are focused on finding strategies for dealing with the possibilities and challenges of working artistically with Game Engines and VR/AR technologies. At the end of phase one, students will have created an experience with Unity.<br />
<br />
In phase two students are challenged to reflect, discuss, rethink and rework their Unity experience, based on individual research and experienced insights. The course emphasises on artistic and opposing ways of working with XR concepts. It’s aim is to establish individual approaches to VR/AR; challenging new mediums that offer artists new possibilities for expression and intercultural communication.<br />

==Description==<br />
<br />
It’s exciting that interactive media such as the Internet creates new social spaces that give us the opportunity to validate identity aspects communicatively, to design them interactively and to redesign them. In these spaces, aspects of identity can be exemplified, tested, simulated, practised and made public. Through communication via the Internet, processes of transmediation also take place that can help to gain a better understanding of our present time.<br />
<br />
Digital media technologies now permeate all areas of life: They transform the cultural and creative sector and the economic system as well as politics, science, civil society and everyday practices. <br />
<br />
That's why artistic work shouldn't be used as an observation of the media, but as an examination of digital cultures. Digital cultures encompass both the technological conditions and artifacts as well as the systems and processes of perception, meaning and communication.<br />
<br />
Strolling through the digital spaces of the Internet, in particular milieu-specific socialization spaces of visual practices, means dealing with the everyday behavior on social media platforms with an observant and analytical consciousness. The concept of strolling, which Walter Benjamin introduced in the 20th century using the example of Parisian boulevard life, can also be transferred to the digital world. With that theory in mind, we will focus on the conditions of identity formation and communication of belonging in various milieus of the Internet. <br />
<br />
The Internet no longer exists as a niche of an alternative or separated world, but has intrinsically grown together with the real living and cultural spaces of our society via the omnipresence of stationary and mobile devices. <br />
What transformation processes occur when social interaction online is transferred into an immersive virtual space?<br />
<br />
VRChat is a Free to play Massively Multipayer Online Game and allows players to use 3D avatars to interact with other players in a virtual world. In contrast to open-world games such as Second Life or Minecraft, VRChat offers the possibility to experience immersive spatial impressions via VR interfaces and to interact with each other through body movements and gestures. <br />
<br />
In our blockmodule workshop we will explore this socialization space as a flâneur and create our own avatars and places of encounter through which we can interact with other users in the virtual world.<br />
<br />
Inspired by our wanderings and encounters we will frame our own digital selfies or self portraits as digital performance pieces and exhibit them at the summaery2022. There will also be the chance to exhibit the work in a planned exhibition titled "Post Physical Playgrounds - Eine NFT-Kunst Ausstellung" <br />
<br />
Students are also invited to attend the NFT workshop, that gives an introduction to the history of NFTs, and will explain the use of wallets, minting and clean NFTs. The Workshop will happen on the 7th and 8th of April, from 10:30 - 18:00 at Digital Bauhaus Lab. If you want to join the Workshop, please write an email to: joerg.brinkmann@uni-weimar.de<br />
<br />
==Recommended Requirements==<br />
Applicants should have a basic knowledge of working with Unity and a laptop. It is preferred but not explicitly required to have accomplished Critical VR Lab I.<br />

==Description==<br />
'''Critical XR Lab''' is a beginner module that offers an Introduction to the Unity game engine. The course will be taught in the Digital Bauhaus Lab, where participants will be able to experiment with different virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies and concepts. <br />
<br />
'''The course will be taught in two phases:''' <br><br />
In phase one participants will be introduced to an overview of the Unity interface and different techniques (Lights, Skyboxes, Prefabs, Timeline, Animation) and technologies (VR headsets, 360 video, AR apps). <br />
The learning phase will be accompanied by lectures and discussions that are focused on finding strategies for dealing with the possibilities and challenges of working artistically with Game Engines and VR/AR technologies. At the end of phase one, students will have created an experience with Unity.<br />
<br />
In phase two students are challenged to reflect, discuss, rethink and rework their Unity experience, based on individual research and experienced insights. The course emphasises on artistic and opposing ways of working with XR concepts. It’s aim is to establish individual approaches to VR/AR; challenging new mediums that offer artists new possibilities for expression and intercultural communication.<br />
<br />
==Recommended Requirements==<br />
No previous knowledge of Unity or other 3D software is needed, but applicants should have access to a laptop and headphones.<br />
<br />
==Criteria for passing==<br />
In order to successfully participate you will have to develop and document your own project on the GMU Wiki. Also, complete the exercises and comply with the submission deadlines<br />

==Description==<br />
<br />
It’s exciting that interactive media such as the Internet creates new social spaces that give us the opportunity to validate identity aspects communicatively, to design them interactively and to redesign them. In these spaces, aspects of identity can be exemplified, tested, simulated, practised and made public. Through communication via the Internet, processes of transmediation also take place that can help to gain a better understanding of our present time.<br />
<br />
Digital media technologies now permeate all areas of life: They transform the cultural and creative sector and the economic system as well as politics, science, civil society and everyday practices. <br />
<br />
That's why artistic work shouldn't be used as an observation of the media, but as an examination of digital cultures. Digital cultures encompass both the technological conditions and artifacts as well as the systems and processes of perception, meaning and communication.<br />
<br />
Strolling through the digital spaces of the Internet, in particular milieu-specific socialization spaces of visual practices, means dealing with the everyday behavior on social media platforms with an observant and analytical consciousness. The concept of strolling, which Walter Benjamin introduced in the 20th century using the example of Parisian boulevard life, can also be transferred to the digital world. With that theory in mind, we focus on the conditions of identity formation and communication of belonging in various milieus of the Internet. <br />
<br />
The Internet no longer exists as a niche of an alternative or separated world, but has intrinsically grown together with the real living and cultural spaces of our society via the omnipresence of stationary and mobile devices. <br />
What transformation processes occur when social interaction online is transferred into an immersive virtual space? VRChat is a Free to play Massively Multipayer Online Game and allows players to use 3D avatars to interact with other players in a virtual world. In contrast to open-world games such as Second Life or Minecraft, VRChat offers the possibility to experience immersive spatial impressions via VR interfaces and to interact with each other through body movements and gestures. <br />
<br />
In our blockmodule workshop we will explore this socialization space as a flâneur and create our own avatars and places of encounter through which we can interact with other users in the virtual world.<br />
<br />
Inspired by our wanderings and encounters we will frame our own digital selfies or self portraits as digital performance pieces and exhibit them at the summaery2022. There will also be the chance to exhibit the work in a planned exhibition titled "Post Physical Playgrounds - Eine NFT-Kunst Ausstellung" at the Kunsthalle Erfurt <br />
<br />
Students are also invited to attend the NFT workshop, that gives an introduction to the history of NFTs, and will explain the use of wallets, minting and clean NFTs. The Workshop will happen on the 7th and 8th of April, from 10:30 - 18:00 in the Digital Bauhaus Lab. If you want to join the Workshop, please write an email to: joerg.brinkmann@uni-weimar.de<br />

==Description==<br />
'''Critical XR Lab''' is a beginner module that offers an Introduction to the Unity game engine. The course will be taught in the Digital Bauhaus Lab, where participants will be able to experiment with different virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies and concepts. <br />
<br />
'''The course will be taught in two phases:''' <br><br />
In phase one participants will be introduced to an overview of the Unity interface and different techniques (Lights, Skyboxes, Prefabs, Timeline, Animation) and technologies (VR headsets, 360 video, AR apps). <br />
The learning phase will be accompanied by lectures and discussions that are focused on finding strategies for dealing with the possibilities and challenges of working artistically with Game Engines and VR/AR technologies. At the end of phase one, students will have created an experience with Unity.<br />
<br />
In phase two students are challenged to reflect, discuss, rethink and rework their Unity experience, based on individual research and experienced insights. The course emphasises on artistic and opposing ways of working with XR concepts. It’s aim is to establish individual approaches to VR/AR; challenging new mediums that offer artists new possibilities for expression and intercultural communication.<br />
<br />
==Recommended Requirements==<br />
No previous knowledge of Unity or other 3D software is needed, but applicants should have access to a laptop and headphones.<br />
<br />
==Criteria for passing==<br />
In order to successfully participate you will have to develop and document your own project on the GMU Wiki. Also, complete the exercises and comply with the submission deadlines<br />
