Class notes (attendance is important).

This is a projects course, in which we will explore various aspects of multimedia. The world we live in is more than a computer screen, and we live in the world with our bodies and our senses, not just with our minds. There are some interesting challenges presented by our need to convey information to each other in this physical world. In this course we will work on various projects that explore how to best convey information in a way that works with our senses - including sight, sound, physicality, and proprioception.
