The Haptic Lab is hands-on studio course in which haptic learning—both physical and virtual—will occur simultaneously. Four fast-paced, materially intensive assignments will be paired with equally intensive digital production. Students not only will engage in making artworks in both realms, but also engage in critical analysis of the dynamic relationship between the two. Materials may include ash wood, silicon rubber, soil, polystyrene, or a recipe for 2,000-year-old cement. Course work will be supported by visiting artists and scholars and accompanied by cognitive self-analysis in the form of weekly photo and journal documentation.
