Physical Interaction Design course aims to familiarize students with practices that provide designing new ways of interactions between humans through digital environments. This course makes it possible for students to experience experimental interaction with sensor technologies where the data is achieved throughout the participant's natural expressive gestures and processed through computer.
PID course introduces physical interaction design in New Media works with microcontroller and sensor technologies. The course explores multimodal interaction practices where they adapt physical interaction to daily life applications and contemporary art works. The course also introduces artistic strategies, structures and methodologies for the creation of interactive installations, physical media/image/sound projects and for the creation of experimental musical instruments. Course will be taught using the Pure Data and Arduino open-source environments. Physical Interaction Design course is a project-based course. At the end of the course, students will submit and present their projects. If it will be possible with the schedule, there will be also a public performance organized for the students to perform and exhibit their course works
The course consists of lectures, exercises and group/individual project works.
