Class Descriptions/ My Schedule

Hello. well i was bored so i just drew out my whole schedule with pretty markers and pens for my wall but now im still bored so i think im gonna tell you guys descriptions of all my classes (partially because im really excited about them and half because when i say 2D i want you guys to know what im talking about! these are the hardcore school descriptions not my words by the way) and what my schedule actually is (so if you want to visit/know when its okay to call/god knows what else you know when i have class and when i dont) so here it goes... i hope its informative... ive been through so many orientation things this week i think you all need one too!! lol

--My Classes--

2D Integrated Studio 1 & 2

2D Integrated Studio provides an introduction to fundamental principals of visual expression and communication in both theoretical and applied forms. Students develop their ability to integrate physical, photographic and digital media and processes in the creation of images, objects and experiences. The course meets twice a week; one session in a computer lab and one session in a studio.

3D Studio 1 & 2

3D Studio introduces students to the basic principles, processes, and materials of three-dimensional form through a series of projects that encourage drawing, experimentation, and conceptual development in the articulation of three dimensional forms. Students explore form, space, and structure through the use of design elements such as line, shape, mass, volume, surface, scale, proportion, material and color.

Critical Reading and Writing

In this course, students learn to read texts closely to understand their inherent arguments and logic; to think more critically; systematically, and intelligently; and learn to write more effectively by developing greater agility both in the formulation of coherently structured arguments as well as in the use of basic mechanics of writing.

Drawing Studio 1 & 2

Drawing Studio emphasizes the perceptual and analytical methods of drawing that support broader art and design processes throughout the school.. The perceptual component develops eye, mind, and hand coordination through the objective observation of the human figure, still life, and space. The role of the analytical component is to develop an understanding of methods, concepts, and drawing systems, such as anatomical, orthographic, paraline, and perspective drawing.

Laboratory

Laboratory is a studio/seminar that immerses students in a study of contemporary art and design culture through readings & discussions, a studio component, and experience-based research. Students integrate conceptual, visual and tactile skills from their studio and Art & Design Studies courses in the development of projects that respond to their immediate urban environment, New York City. Laboratory broadly introduces art & design methodologies and is taught by faculty from all Parsons programs.

Perspectives in World Art/Design

The objective is to expose students to the breadth and diversity of the visual arts and design worldwide with a focus on cognitive analysis and methodological approaches.
