This page lists sixteen projects submitted in response to the four major assignments in the course.
Any process of selection leaves stories untold. Many of this term's projects were remarkable in some respect; most reflected notable effort and advancement on the part of particular students. Unfortunately, it's not feasible to keep all projects on-line.
The projects represented here are notable for their conceptual strength, Flash technique, and aesthetics. They also reflect a range of responses to the assignments and may be useful as examples to future classes.
