| SCTM 2B96 Special Topic in Science, Technology and Mathematics: Holography for 3D Visualization 0.50 Credit(s) Academic Course |
|
| Prerequisite: 1.0 Liberal Studies credits at the 100 level including the first year writing course with a minimum passing grade of 60% and an overall average of 60%. |
|
| This interdisciplinary course, offered jointly by OCAD and the University of Toronto explores 3D visualization and human perception through the medium of digital holography. Participants will study the most commonly encountered phenomena in optics, such as interference, diffraction and lasers, in a visual manner by producing holographic images. Students will explore the intersection of art and science from historical and critical viewpoints. Scientific theory will be complemented by hands-on studio work. This unique collaboration between arts and science students working in teams, along with teaching staff of very diverse back ground, will result in a rich learning environment. |
|
| Notes: This "Special Topic" course provides an introduction to Science/Technology/Math through analysis of topics of general interest or relevance. This course fulfills 0.5 credit toward the Liberal Studies requirements for a BFA or BDes. Students must choose 1 of 2 labs in addition to the lecture component. |
