A Media Arts Infused World: Promoting Creative Inquiry Through Media Arts Education
Manage episode 456853428 series 3626627
This podcast produced through Google's NotebookLM explains that media arts is deeply intertwined with all aspects of modern life, demanding a more critical and active engagement than passive consumption. Olsen defines media arts broadly as machine-based creative production, encompassing everything from flip books to AI-generated art, highlighting its historical evolution and the accelerating pace of technological change. The chapter emphasizes four key properties of media arts: interconnective (blending art forms), multimodal (engaging multiple senses), plastic (boundless potential), and potentiated (limitless possibility). Finally, it showcases how Olsen's pedagogical approach transforms traditional classrooms into creative studios, using media arts projects to foster critical thinking, collaboration, and real-world skills across various subjects, ultimately empowering students to become engaged citizens and creative problem-solvers.
