EXPERIMENTELLE GESTALTUNG NEUER TECHNOLOGIEN / PROF. RALF BAECKERSuper Deep Media is a continuation of last semesters course, but students do not necessarily have participated in last semester’s course. New students are welcome to join. (max 15. students) we are full already!
Super Deep Media operates on manifold scales, dimensions and disciplines. Deep Media goes beyond the surfaces of technology, the digital and the earth. Deep Media cracks black boxes and digs deep into matter, organic materials, computer chips, minerals, algorithms, bodies, culture, time and space.
Some Deep media thinkers and artefacts will inspire our practices: Deep Time Media (Siegfried Zielinski), A Geology of Media (Jussi Parikka), Code&Clay/Deep Cities (Shannon Mattern), Insect Media (Jussi Parikka), Deep Space Media (Voyager Golden Record), Second Order Cybernetics (Gordon Pask), Hyperobjects (Timothy Morton), Electromagnetism (Douglas Kahn), Intra-Actions/Deep Matter (Karen Barad).
The course alternates between theoretical excursions, research, discourse, experiments, analysis, making and presenting your (super) deep media artifacts. The course will be accompanied by workshops and tutorials on technical subjects (electronics, microcontrollers, etc).
The course consists of two parts:
- Wednesday 10 - 14 Plenary/Discussions
- Wednesday 14 - 18 Workshops/Practical Working/Individual Critique
