SCMC 3220W - Screen Cultures (3 Cr.) Arts/Humanities, Technology and Society, Writing Intensive
Course description
Screens increasingly define the ways that we communicate with one another and how we encounter the world. This course will offer a critical, historical approach to the emergence of “screen cultures” from the beginning of photography and cinema to our own age of ubiquitous touch screen displays. We will pay a great deal of attention to the ways that such technologies drive our patterns of consumption and production as well as how they create and define our social environments.
