Multisensory Media has incorporated smell, touch, kinetic motions in addition to vision and hearing to expand the sensory experience and deliver fuller immersion. The course examines technically mediated sensory immersion in creative media and examines the role of the body in immersive experiences. Surveying relevant media works from past to present, the course invites students to explore multisensory media as a creative paradigm through theoretical investigation and creative practice. Students are expected to apply their learning through research presentations, written essays, and creative projects. Students will attend lectures on the subject, read on the subject, view relevant films or media texts, and carry out required modes of assessment. At the end of the course students will have a good understanding of the subject and will be able to demonstrate that understanding in specified forms of assessment.
