After a relatively long period of not teaching Digital Imaging at the UO, I was asked to teach one section of the class in 2005's Winter Term. The site design featured here is graphically the same as my original concept from 2002. In terms of instructional content, I completely overhauled the syllabus, readings, activities and my overall approach to Digital Imaging. I was able to synthesize some broader themes into the lectures that dealt with culture and history which I feel helped to make the class about something deeper than just the software.



The syllabus posted here was followed in-class fairly closely until the midway point in the term when I started to alter the lecture content in reaction to the student's individual skill levels. In retrospect the assignments that the students were given may have been overly conceptual in their goals but the results were still very interesting in terms of materials experimentation. One of the highlights of the term was a lenticular image project which was a new technique I learned about halfway through the class and managed to incorporate into an assignment. For anyone not familiar with lenticular imaging you should check out this site on the physics and this site on the commercial applications.
