Intro to Making with Mixed Reality is a transdisciplinary studio that introduces students to augmented and virtual reality technologies, and everything in between - spatial sensors, photogrammetry, motion capture, and computer vision. Through a hands on technology-centered research methodology, students will work in ArtCenter's Immersion Lab and learn how to research, concept, prototype, and design with this emerging medium. Based on a series of investigative assignments designed to rapidly immerse students into AR, VR, MR, and Unity - an interactive game development software - students will interweave the digital and the physical, experiment with the misuse the medium, and use experiential prototyping to identify new opportunities, interactions, and aesthetics. Students will use mixed reality as a new toolset and design a final project that aligns to their personal creative practice. An interest in using technology to inform your creative process is an important requirement for this course.
