Intro in 3D will offer students across 15 weeks an exploration into the fundamentals of 3-dimensional media. This course investigates a delimited but non-prescriptive constellation of elements foundational to the aesthetic and material operations of object hood and space. Different sections of Intro to 3D offered within and across different semesters will allow different interesting focus on 3D media: Sculpture, casting, space and Installation. Students will receive basic technical instruction in each of the areas. From here students are encouraged to address any given assignment through a range of material realization. This Core Lab will allow students to explore technical knowledge, facility in tandem with the history of 3D media, through integrated readings. Technical skill sets and historical awareness of the genre will be taught side by side.
