052-0503-00L	Architecture and Art I Project grading at semester end is based on the list of enrolments on Friday 2nd November 2018, 24:00 h (valuation date) only. Ultimate deadline to unsubscribe or enroll for the studio is Friday 2nd November 2018, 24:00 h.	8 credits	2V + 5G + 1U	H. E. Franzen, K. Sander
Abstract	Attendance of eight lectures and gaining knowledge of eight different perspectives / media of the fine arts. Deepening in one of the eight directions in a self-chosen deepening course; 3 weeks elaborating an artistic task (emphasis of grading for the final semester grade: 3/5 final presentation, 1/5 written project-conception, 1/5 participation)
Learning objective	In the HS18, the students will learn about all eight perspectives and media of the fine arts in a course rotation. They expand their knowledge in a mentored course with an independent artistic work.
Content	In HS18 you learn about eight different perspectives and media of the Fine Arts. You choose one of the eight courses to be your special course. With the selected lecturer, you go into a three-week mentorate and work on an artistic task that is presented at a final critique. (emphasis of grading for the final semester grade: 3/5 final presentation, 1/5 written project-conception, 1/5 participation)
052-0521-18L	3D Scanning and Freeform Modeling Limited number of participants. Enrolment in agreement with the lecturer only (grueninger@arch.ethz.ch).	2 credits	2U	K. Sander
Abstract	Digital Sculpture. Experimental use of a system for digitalizing and modeling 3D objects.
Learning objective	Experimentation with digital tools and various design processes of 3D forms in fine arts, design and architecture. Practicing and playing with dimensionality and sense of space.
Content	The department of Architecture and Fine Arts has a 3D-Bodyscanner available for the digitalization of persons and objects, and is complimented by a special software for modeling the 3D data. After a period of training and practice, participants are asked to develop ideas and concepts for their own projects. These concepts should be used to lead and expand the system and the possibilities of its application. The process of readjustment and its realization will be a continual part of developing the individual projects.
Prerequisites / Notice	The number if participants is limited to 14 students and enrolments need the lecturer's allowance. To enroll in the course, please consult the lecturer: Adi Grüninger: grueninger@arch.ethz.ch
052-0523-18L	360° - Reality to Virtuality	4 credits	4G	K. Sander, A. Wieser
Abstract	Basics of 3D-scanning of rooms and bodies, individual scan projects, 3D-visualizations and animations. Definition and realization of a project, working alone and in groups.
Learning objective	Understanding 3D-technologies, handling positive and negative spaces, handling hardware and software, processing 3D point clouds (registering scans, filtering, merging of data sets, precision, visualizations, animation), interpretation of the generated data.
Content	1. Introduction to 3D laser scanning (getting to know technologies, methods and context; carry out practical tests) 2. Project development within the group (idea, concept, target, intention, selection of methods & strategies) 3. Project implementation within the group (possible results, videos, pictures, prints, publications, web, blog, forum etc.) 4. Project presentation (exhibition incl. critiques, discussions)
063-0201-18L	3D Scanning and Freeform Modeling (Thesis Elective)	6 credits	11A	K. Sander
Abstract	Individual completion of an artistic project with 3-d photography (scanning) and digital modeling (elective coursework).
Learning objective	Creative Experience: Definition of ones own interests and realization of an artistic project using 3d photography and digital modeling. Experimental research for expanded usage of this tools.
Content	The contents of these elective studies are expected to link to the subject matter of the attended course.
Prerequisites / Notice	Participation at the elective course "3D Scanning and Freeform Modeling" Application for the coursework with the lecuturer also via e-mail: Adi Grüninger (grueninger@arch.ethz.ch)
