How do we engage with, consume, create and share photographs in an image- saturated world? Focusing on photography's influence from its origins to the present day, The Visual Self explores our personal relationship with the photographic images we capture and those we observe. Students will come away with a new recognition of their own engagement with images and how they consume and share visual forms of media. Through lectures, discussions, and visual presentations, the course will highlight the role of photography in disseminating information, trends, ideas, culture, and art both in contemporary and historical contexts. Students are not required to have any prior photography experience but will need the ability to capture their own images with a digital camera, smartphone, or tablet.Usually HeldTue 1:00pm–3:05pm, Tue 10:00am–12:05pm
