An investigation of the sexuality of the so-called Love Goddesses from the perspective of the Masculine gaze. Will analyze how cinema deals with sexual politics and explore cinematic discourse in homosexuality and alternative lifestyles. This course combines theory and practice in creative computing. We will investigate the cultures of the computer and the new textualities that occur when word, image, sound, and design are joined for the purposes of scholarly and creative expression. We will also create these texts in collaborative projects that make use of stand-alone and networked authoring technologies.
Class takes place in an interactive computer theater.
