short english description of what the class is about
Through the project we aim to explore interactive practices and media formats, that are suitable to shape common experiences in public space.
In contrast to the one-way communication of mass media spectacles we aim to explore processes that allow different types of participation. On a concrete level we aim to experiment with a range of sensor modules, for example the citizen sensor (http://citizensensor.cc/) as well as "perception devices"‚ that employ multiple sensors and cameras, sensors for animals in public space, video and photo traps, video mapping and so on.
The project will be commonly prepared by students of Urban Development and
students of Media Art and Design. During the first part of the semester we will be working towards a two-week study trip to Istanbul. On-site the students from Weimar will collaborate with local students from Istanbul in groups of two or three.
Each group will develop and execute their own project idea within a more general assignment.
