So taking these DTC and Fine Arts classes are new to me this semester. The starting point for the DTC minor is DTC 355 and FA 331. I wish the minor would have started with some lower level courses, feel out of place compared to some other students who seem to know a lot about art.
Anyway along my way in this course I am being introduced to new artist. One such artist is Trevor Paglen. Paglen is a digital artist who works with Limit-Telephotography. Limit-telephotography involves photographing landscapes that cannot be seen with the unaided eye. Paglen uses Limit-telephotography to show remote military installations. Limit-telephotography uses high powered telescopes that use a focal range of 1300mm to 7000mm.
I agree, 355 and 331 should not be points of entry into the program. Have you taken any of the introductory courses FA102, DTC101? Great example re: Paglen! Cool stuff.
ReplyDeleteNo I have not taken FA102 or DTC101
