This required interaction course, the last of three, moves into more complex design principles, code language(s), hardware/software used in the creation of dynamic communication design solutions that are physical, human-centric experiences that extends our understanding of user(s) and user groups that consider digital accessibility through the integration of user testing, performance, and play. Through assigned projects students will apply an understanding of typographic form, message and organizational systems in the context of moderated physical user experiences in spaces large and small. Students are encouraged to move beyond explore and engage new tools and platforms in order to achieve informed design solutions. Contemporary themes of interactive communication and culture, including elements of media theory are presented. Students may elect to take additional courses in Interaction Design like Experience I and II, in the junior and senior year.
