IN TRANSLATION

Course Description

Translation can be an attempt to understand, consume or subsume another language. In this class students will use analog and digital media to produce chapbooks and broadsides that examine the visual manifestation of translation and the interplay of the poetic and political power dynamics that can arise. Through a series of technical demonstrations, directed assignments and independent projects, students will conceptually and formally explore the idea of translation and its ability to transpose and transplant ideas from one language, culture, medium, or moment to another.
