The course starts by asking students to choose a theme or concept they wish to explore, this has ranged from space, sealife to crime and arabesque patterns. The course is structured where new forms of production are introduced to them each week and students are then tasked with creating outcomes with their newly acquired knowledge. Each student will have a chess board that is informed by a theme of their choosing, made with process or a variety of processes that they have not learned before.
