This course offers a critical and practical introduction in how to operate, control and experiment with different digital camera and printing technologies in the production of photographic image artworks. Students will learn technical and practical aspects of camera control such as light, exposure and workflows appropriate to photomedia practice. Through a series of short projects, students will explore the limits and possibilities of the camera apparatus, both as a creative tool and technology of surveillance, self-expression, scientific rationality and cultural memory.
