The difference between E F V I and VCD, which is a perfect foundation course for this elective, is that the meaning mentioned before is a ‘given’, rather than the main subject of investigation. The point of departure for the experimental formgiving process is based on ready made visual information derived from global visual culture. This is a much larger source than that of two dimensional representations of the world of art, which even though the boundaries are stretching there as well, remains the central focus of VCD. Ready made examples of visual information that could be sourced during the course range anywhere from facial expressions and hand gestures, to conspiracy maps, game environments, real time surveillance footage, TikTok choreographies, memes, deepfakes and beyond. Together these sources represent a cross-disciplinary landscape connecting a variety of research domains; from social and computer science to the arts, digital heritage and popular culture.
