NMD 4440 Critical Making for New Media

(formerly NMD 444)

Critical Making refers to a broad range of activities; it encompasses modes of physical fabrication like woodworking and fashion design, to modes of digital fabrication like 3D printing and customizing a Raspberry Pi. The most important aspect of critical making is the imperative to situate what one builds within a social, political or ethical context. Allowing students time to conceptualize and reflect upon the context in which their projects might function is equally as important the act of production. This course is a capstone course and will be tied into the second internship.
