Computer Science 243EM - Embodied Interaction

This class will expose students to programming techniques used in computer-based interactive art including real-time graphics, data visualization, human-computer interaction, sensor networks, computer vision, and physical computing through analysis of existing computational art and synthesis of original works. The course will place particular emphasis on embodied interation -- interaction that uses sensors to react to the whole body. Weekly assignments and reading will serve to reinforce concepts from lectures, build technical skills, and develop a personal aesthetic.

Prereq: COMSC-211.
