This class from 1998 was one of the first classes taught under the auspices of the Aesthetics and Computation Group at the MIT Media Lab, and deals with the very early stages of interactive computer graphics and their combination with the visual arts. A full set of assignments and solutions can be seen in the
assignments section, and the final work of the class is in the
projects section.
參與麻省理工學院媒體實驗室所開之「數字攝影」課程的學生，必須在活用場景捕捉、影像操控與互動的前提下，結合攝影以及電腦運算技術，呈現一場數位藝術展覽。學生需自備普通的數位相機，按週繳交軟體作品，針對訊號處理與互動設計的角度，探索各種美學議題。累積成果共計創作了 100 多個 Java Applet，其中大部份具有互動功能，展示了許多以電腦操控影像的新方向。每週的作業已集結為期末展覽，收錄所有學生的作品。
The aim of the students from the Numeric Photography class at the MIT Media Laboratory was to present an exhibition of digital artworks which blend photography and computation, in the context of scene capture, image play, and interaction. Equipped with low end digital cameras, students created weekly software projects to explore aesthetic issues in signal processing and interaction design. The results are more than a hundred Java® applets, many of which are interactive, that suggest new avenues for image play on the computer. These weekly exercises led to the final product, an exhibition of the student work.
