Omnipresent digital forms mingle with artifacts from the past, forming a constantly branching network – an evanescent visual cloud.

In spite of this, we take digital surfaces as something naturally, as a self-evident tool and daily companion — in the absence of any knowledge of their authorship, economies, and algorithms.

Against this backdrop, the Digitale Grafik class explores the integrity of modern technologies and conceives visual models in the context of culture and digital possibilities. The class represents an endeavor to emancipate ourselves from existing tools, beaten visual tracks and to break up the confectionery of visual templates. The approach is based on strong dialogues between the online world and our fields of activities as self-reflected designers. It is an on going feedback loop between society, network politics and the visual as necessary points of interests where students create websites, applications, and media installations, as self-chosen artistic projects or in tasks related to contemporary issues.

To reach these goals, we invite relevant artists, designers and thinkers on a regular basis to the class as guest critics and offer workshops on topics that concern us and the digital world we live in.
