Class Visual Culture II

Acquire a useful body of knowledge in the field of contemporary visual culture; understand the relationship and interactions of Design with Culture, the Arts and Society in the context of post-modernity and contemporaneity; promote the approximation and integration of themes and activities with the core subjects of the course; understand the importance of the theoretical-practical problematisation proposed by the subject; become aware that designers can work outside the usual and pre-established areas of the profession, dealing with issues from a wide variety of fields, participating in transdisciplinary teams, designing and producing strategies, concepts, ideas and artefacts that incorporate complex critical values, investigating alternative theories and processes, applying these results to quality productions and creative design acumen.

Use of the move/do strategy which aims to adopt a hybrid approach by associating several disciplines and several teachers in the same project. Working in an interdisciplinary way so that all concepts, systems and technologies make sense contributes to a richer vision of what you want to convey and investigate.
