Teaching Practice//
These are some examples of my students’ work from 2009 – present. Classes include Intro to 2D, 3D Modeling and Digital Fabrication, Robotics, and Animation/Motion Graphics.
3D Modeling/Digital Fabrication//
Students were introduced to Cinema 4D and the basic pipeline for rendering/texturing and 3D printing/Laser cutter output.
Projects included envisioning digital fabricated prosthetics, using data in a 3-Dimensional Space, and micro-robotic machines.
Animation//
Students built on their previous knowledge of Cinema 4D and learned about animation and motion graphics.
Many were working on Senior Thesis projects and the class was used as a sounding board for their ideas.
Topics included rigging, character animation, motion graphics pipelines, non-linear storytelling, sound design, and projection mapping.
Intro to 2D//
This course focused on giving students an introduction to 2D design, form, image manipulation, and basic programming.
Software used included Photoshop, Illustrator, and Processing.
Students were engaged in a dialogue about technology futurism, collage and transparency, Art and Technology historical contexts, data visualization, and generative image programming.
Robotics//
Students were introduced to basic programming and electrical theory using the Arduino platform and Max/MSP/Jitter.
