Title
A trip to arts for computer graphics students
Abstract
Complex and sophisticated projects, on which information technologists and artists meet and cooperate, often require an understanding of possible problems and solutions seen from both sides. While artists (creators) are usually somewhat familiar with current technologies, e.g. the Computer Graphics (CG) field, programmers are not well educated in the arts and their understanding of artistic needs is thus insufficient. In order to improve the education of CG students towards fine arts, we have created a BSc course on Art and Graphics design and have been running it for seven years. We consider this approach to education at a technologically oriented university as unusual and rare, but highly valuable for CG students. This paper describes the content of the course, summarizes the experience gained, and evaluates its usefulness for CG students in the subsequent MSc study program.
