ARTSTUDI 130: Interactive Art: Making it with Arduino

Students use electronics and software to create kinetic and interactive elements in artwork. No prior knowledge of electronics or software is required. Students learn to program the Arduino, a small easy-to-use microprocessor control unit ( see http://www.arduino.cc/ ). Learn to connect various sensors such as light, motion, sound and touch and use them to control software. Learn to interface actuators like motors, lights and solenoids to create movement. Learn to connect the Arduino to theMAX/MSP/Jitter programming environment to create media-intensive video and audio environments. Explore the social dimensions of electronic art. (lower level)

ARTSTUDI 13A: Fundamentals of Oil Painting

This course is an introduction to oil painting. Students concentrate primarily on the technical aspects of the medium (i.e. how to paint as opposed to what to paint.) We examine color: how to mix it, how it establishes spatial relationships, light, and shadow. The class progresses through a series of problems designed to develop a sensitivity to paint application and surface quality; as well as to value, composition, volume, light, and space as the necessary elements of recreating perceptual experience. By the end of the course, students are able to apply some sophisticated techniques to visual problem solving. The aim of the course is to demonstrate the mechanical structure of oil painting.

ARTSTUDI 13AX: Photography

This hands-on course in photography will emphasize the techniques, aesthetics, and conceptual considerations of traditional black and white photography. Students will also explore photography's history and applications as an expressive tool, with the power to communicate ideas and move the viewer.nnThroughout the course, students will master the use of their own manual 35mm camera and process the film themselves in our lab. They will also learn the techniques needed to make quality black and white prints in the darkroom. Students will coordinate an exhibition and present their finest work in a professional manner.

ARTSTUDI 13BX: Painting For Non-Majors

This class will introduce the student to fundamental techniques in acrylic painting. Beginning with discussions of how to prepare multiple types of supports and surfaces, the class will then delve into a multitude of formulations and mediums that make acrylic media so versatile. Following this students will begin to explore some of the less discussed techniques for image making, such as stenciling, tracing, projecting, line work, and glazing. Along the way students will be instructed on brush selection, and use, and the various brands and uses of particular acrylic media. The course will culminate with two projects utilizing the media and techniques discussed in class. The goal of this course is to produce confident students with the means to apply sophisticated acrylic techniques to diverse situations in multiple disciplines.

ARTSTUDI 140: Drawing I

Functional anatomy and perspective as they apply to problems of drawing the form in space. Individual and group instruction as students work from still life set-ups, nature, and the model. Emphasis is on the development of critical skills and perceptual drawing techniques for those with little or no previous experience with pastels, inks, charcoal, conte, and pencil. Lectures alternate with studio work. (lower level)

ARTSTUDI 141S: PLEIN AIR DRAWING

The natural world has sublime, and beauty, as well as structure, unscenic nature, and surprise. This course will take students out into the landscape to draw both sides of this equation. What does it mean to once again remind us of the glory of nature and its both scenic, and unscenic qualities? We will begin to understand the history of sublime painting and drawing, as well as the concept of natural reality in light of Darwin, John Muir, Rachel Carson, and others. The contemporary world interrupts the notion of nature by adding man-made technology and domestication into the landscape; how does this impact representation? We will visit areas on the Stanford campus such as the Jasper Ridge, the Stanford Dish, the equestrian site: the Red Barn, Outdoor sports stadium, Hoover tower view, Vistas, Forests, Skies, and the edges of human encroachment will be areas worthy of exploring. Also, carcass, birds, and other animals in the landscape will be subjects as well. Staging the landscape with props and drawing these is another way to update the Plein Air experience. Studying the nuances of nature both its horror and its beauty is the contemporary subject of Plein Air drawing today. Summer.

ARTSTUDI 145A: PAINTING WITH ACRYLICS

This introduction to painting takes full advantage of the quick-drying properties of acrylic paint. A flexible medium which can be altered to resemble everything from watercolor to oil paint to cement, we explore the options. Beginning with basic technique and considerations of color and composition, we move through selected schools of painting from Impressionism and Expressionism to Pop and personal projects. No experience necessary.
