Synopsis

This subject is a part of Communication, Expression and Documentation. It aims to provide students with the tools to communicate their work through audiovisual and graphic media effectively, accurately and creatively in their professional practice. It enables them to understand that the visualisation supports and work documentation are also the means of shaping the practice and not a mere recording tool. Students will be introduced to different approaches to the subject, dealt with through specific practical exercises, focusing on the exploration of specific problems and experimentation with different analogue and digital tools. The proposals will be contextualized through historical and theoretical frameworks that enable situating each practice in relation to its tradition and contemporary languages, with specific referents and the analysis of its different physical, aesthetic and cultural dimensions.
