Teaching goals (program content, subject description)

Curriculum content (course content).
The Intermedia Communication Studio is a place for reflection on the relationship between word, image, sound, space and presence in the first degree program in the context of the 3m: medium, message, mediation.


The Intermedia Communication Studio functions in the field of intermedia methods, areas and phenomena. It is a place of searching, experimenting and researching in the field of communication, intermedia and their mutual dependence. The starting point is reality (everyday life), its interpretation and basic human relations.


The program of the course Intermedia Communication assumes, apart from realizing selected concepts or resigning from them, intuitive actions, improvisations, which lead to conscious creation. Students find and choose appropriate tools (manual and digital), with which they feel comfortable and which they want to use. Referring one medium to another and perceiving one medium through another brings an answer to the context and relationship in which they wish to use the chosen means of expression.
Issues addressed:
- Media Art viewed linguistically, technologically and aesthetically,
- between art and humanities,
- mediality of the aforementioned art in terms of perception, analysis, representation and interpretation,
- its relationality, processuality and contextuality,
- space for critical reflection.
We seek answers by combining opposing elements (construction - deconstruction, defining - redefining). We overcome our own limits. We try difficult, often intimate experiences. We experiment. We try to get closer to the elusive, non-verbalised sensations. We acquire a different perspective of perception and, trying not to destroy the results already achieved, we delve more consciously into the creative process - until the final practical work is created.
We understand education as a space for development related to the upbringing and education of the student, situated between the subjectivity of the individual and the social dimension of human existence.


Purpose of the classes
The Intermedia Communication Studio is a place for reflection between word, image, sound, space and presence in the first degree program in the context of the 3m: medium, message, mediation.
Acquiring the ability to use digital and analog media and to intermediate, collaborate, perceive, represent, communicate experiences and values is one of the key competencies. Also important is the ability to read media messages freely with an understanding of the main content. From functional to reflective use of media. Between subject and object of social relations.


The starting point is reality (everyday life), its interpretation and basic human relations. We search for answers overcoming our own limits by combining opposing elements (construction - deconstruction, defining - redefining). Students collect appropriate tools (manual and digital), become familiar with the workshop and the techniques used in the studio. They get closer to authentic, elusive, non-verbalized sensations and find topics that will become the basis for building their diploma work. They acquire a different perspective of perception and further delve into the creative process between art and science.


The aim of education in the studio is to break stereotypes in thinking and practical action that hinder, prevent or delay the necessary development of each of us, above all in the field of interest of experience and exploration in art education in the term communication and intermedia and their interdependence.
The curriculum is designed to gradually and thoroughly prepare students to express themselves in intermedia communication and to acquire the skills needed for interdisciplinary group work, both in the internal and external artistic environment.
The culmination of coursework supported by the scientific and technical knowledge gained in the classroom is the Bachelor's degree.


Bachelor's level: professional-artistic diploma:
1. Working on text, image, sound, object and space in the context of the 3m: medium, message, mediation.
2. Perceiving space through the senses individually, in relation to others.
3. Translating emotions and perceptions of intermedia communication into manual and digital activities
4. Becoming acquainted with the techniques developed in the studio, workshop.
5. Searching for own language on the basis of the interpenetration of classical and digital media
6. Finding topics, which will become the basis for the work
7. Precising the message, content in relation to the viewer.
8. Completing the tools needed to carry out the project.
9. Determining the interaction with the viewer, or lack thereof.
