Goals

This course aims at developing students’ critical awareness of the

relationships of media with the world of cultural realm, which

necessarily entails a critical look into the interwoven areas of

culture, ideology and society; public and private spheres of the

social life, urban space and daily life as well as the world system.

Content

The course outcomes will provide students with the abilities to

exercise critical judgment in applied research and with knowledge

to discuss media and cultural reproduction; public sphere and

culture interactions of media; relationships between technology,

culture and socially produced space and time relationships of

media, culture and society. Under the topic of Media Analysis, by

focusing on cultural issues we will try to understand the ways in

which media is seen and criticized by major thinkers of our time

in order to develop our analytical skills to read the media and

render its relationships on cultural level. The last hour of each

week’s course will be reserved for screenings and discussions on

the screened material.

Goals

This course is for students who interested in learning basic

photography. Through weekly assignments, presentations and

lectures, the course will explore the demands, both practical and

ethical, faced by the contemporary photographers. Students will

have the oppurtunity to take photographs for a photo project during

the term and learn to see and appreciate light in a new way, learn

to see and design shapes in the frame. The most important thing

students can bring away from this course is a new sense of seeing.

To be able to have a finer appreciation of light in its myriad

manifestations, to discover meaning in images rather than words,

or most importantly, how to make images, important and powerful

in their own right, rather than merely "take pictures" is the main

goal of this course.

Content

Historical outline of the photographic representation.Single lens

reflex, twin lens reflex, the view camera. Camera controls:

shutter, aperture, light meter, depth of field control, how shutter

and aperture work together. ¨Framing the Subject, Light and

Form, Urban shooting. The Portrait. How to "see

photographically”. Ethic Issues and Manipulation in

photography.
