Starting in the Summer Semester 2023, the Meetup “Cookies & Screens” will take place several times per semester as part of +dimensions dialogues. Students, workshop staff, professors, artistic researchers, and lecturers from all departments of the art school come together to talk about current projects in the field of technology in art & design.
Various topics are covered during the meetings: The new XR Technology Lab of weißensee school of art and design will be presented. Student projects from Painting, Sculpture, and Visual Communication, among others, as well as interdisciplinary seminar results, will be showcased. External guests will present their work. Based on this, there are discussions about artificial intelligence in the arts and in design. Digital design tools of the respective disciplines are discussed – among others various photogrammetry software.
The Meetup is addressed to beginners as well as experts. With this, +dimensions wants to create a platform to make projects and topics visible at the art school and, in particular, to create a place to exchange ideas and network about this constantly changing field outside regular school activities.
