| This course considers how artists, filmmakers, and writers use mobile media to create various forms of art, including cellphilms, soundwalks, and micro-blog. In general, mobile media art takes art out of the gallery, cinema, and city and puts it into our pockets, public spaces, rural environments. Drawing on the mobilities paradigm, we examine how mobile media artists working in screen, digital, and game spaces challenge usual forms of participation, interactivity, and accessibility. We will utilize analyze different mobile media art projects both within and outside of the classroom, which may include cellphilms, mobile phone orchestras, soundwalks, and/or soundscapes. Students have the option of creating a cellphilm, or soundwalk for their final project. |
