Kinetics: Time and Motion

This class focuses on time-based objects and spaces. Techniques include organic and mechanized motion systems, electric art, simple control systems, and introductory electronics. Students may engage with time via the object, interactive performance, or reactive environmental work. Works are created both collaboratively and individually while participating in a Theatre of Time exhibition. Presentations cover the history and design of the mechanical device and the automata as well as historic and contemporary kinetic artists.
