ARTSINST 150G: Performing Race, Gender, and Sexuality (CSRE 150G, CSRE 350G, FEMGEN 150G, LIFE 150G, TAPS 150G)

In this theory and practice-based course, students will examine performances by and scholarly texts about artists who critically and mindfully engage race, gender, and sexuality. Students will cultivate their skills as artist-scholars through written assignments and the creation of performances in response to the assigned material. Attendance and written reflection about a live performance event on campus are required. Students will also learn various meditation practices as tools for making and critiquing performance, in both our seminar discussions and performance workshops. We will approach mindfulness as method and theory in our own practice, as well as in relation to the works studied. We will also consider the ethics and current debates concerning the mindfulness industry. Examples of artists studied include James Luna, Nao Bustamante, Renee Cox, William Pope.L, Cassils, boychild, Curious, Adrian Piper, Xandra Ibarra, Valérie Reding, Guillermo Gomez-Peña, and Ana Mendieta.

ARTSTUDI 19N: An Artist's Life: Diverse Voices and Changing Contexts

This course is designed for students considering an Art Practice minor or major. In this course, students gain confidence and experience connecting to their artistic voices as we explore the myriad possible career paths artists take to build sustainable careers. The course consists of a series of studio projects, each centered around a different artist whose career and art practice we study. The example artists will be primarily artists of color, or artists from communities which are underrepresented in the art world, with practices and careers ranging from the conventional to the more unusual. The goal of these artist selections is to model the possibilities of an art career for students who do not easily see themselves well represented in the mainstream art world, while also broadening all students¿ understanding of the many different methods for making work and practicing as an artist today.

ARTSTUDI 123I: Undergraduate Seminar in Composition: Music, Art, and Intermedia (MUSIC 123I)

How do music and art relate? How does one speak for, with, the other? In the past century, Western visual art turned towards abstraction and time-based works. Techniques and processes for interaction between image and sound expanded dramatically. What better place to learn about them than the Anderson Collection? Through students' own visual and aural creations, we will explore and share individual approaches to time, symbol, memory, and meaning. Previous experience in music composition is welcome but not required. This course must be taken for a minimum of 3 units and a letter grade to be eligible for Ways-AII credit.

ARTSTUDI 129: Augmented Reality: Placemaking and Storytelling

In this 4-unit course, students will explore the transformative potential of Augmented Reality (AR) as a medium for artistic expression and intervention in public spaces. The course delves into the world of interactive AR art, equipping students with the skills to create site-specific AR interventions that not only transform public spaces but also unlock historically important, unseen, or politically relevant layers of these spaces. The course covers storytelling techniques, audio recording and editing, and the use of Unity and other spatial tools for AR creation, equipping students with the skills to weave complex narratives into their AR projects. These narratives can bring to light the hidden histories, untold stories, and socio-political nuances of the chosen spaces, adding a depth of meaning and engagement to their work. Students will engage in a series of projects, culminating in a final project where they will create an interactive, immersive AR piece for a specific location on campus
