Hybrid, Critical and Innovative Electronic Art Educational Experiences

Spitz, Rejane; Venturell, Suzete; Leão, Lucia

Full Article:

The teaching of Electronic Art began in Brazil in the mid 1980s, when several Arts, Design and Communication educational institutions incorporated disciplines that explored its immense potential for society. In the absence of established standards or norms for teaching in these areas, it was the pioneer educators themselves - many of them also artists - who created Electronic Art curricula, programs, assignments and evaluation criteria, and laid the foundation for this new field of knowledge. In this article, we present the pioneering experiences of its authors - educators and electronic artists since the 1980s - who describe their teaching methods and practices, challenges faced and educational outcomes. In conclusion, they discuss the new role of teaching Electronic Art in a society now full of digital possibilities, in which the concepts of space, time and life have been incessantly redefined and given new meanings
