Graduate students will acquire the theoretical and practical skills necessary to become skillful producers and critical consumers of digital media. At the heart of the class, we will ask “what do digital media technologies mean?” and “how do they work?” Focused on building digital literacy through both theoretical considerations and hands-on project-building, students will come to understand digital communication technologies in a wide variety of media landscapes, historical contexts, and practical applications. The course will describe the technologies that make up different media systems, and explore how these systems constitute forms of human expression and sociality. Students will come to understand the principles behind various forms of digitally mediated communication, and be able to explain why particular applications of these principles are effective or not.
