# CDFI: Chair of New Media & Applied Graphics - Block Projects Archive

This source provides a historical archive of "Blockprojekte" (block projects) and teaching assignments at the Chair of New Media & Applied Graphics within the Caspar-David-Friedrich-Institut (CDFI) at the University of Greifswald, covering the period from Summer Semester 2020 to Summer Semester 2022.

The archive lists a diverse array of intensive workshops and courses led by both permanent faculty and external guest lecturers, demonstrating a hybrid approach that blends traditional graphic techniques with cutting-edge digital media.

### Key Course Themes
- **Digital & Emerging Media:** VR and 360° video production, Generative Design, and the impact of YouTube on traditional media.
- **Traditional & Hybrid Graphics:** Screen printing (Siebdruck), photography, and "Post Plein Air" digital drawing.
- **Conceptual & Experimental:** "Ghostology," "Scantology" (exploring scanning as a method of capturing reality), and found footage cinema.
- **Sound & Performance:** Sound-based explorations ("Der Gute Klang") and the intersection of performance and video.

### Pedagogical Structure
The curriculum is characterized by the use of **Blockprojekte**, which allow the institute to rapidly integrate contemporary artistic practices and professional expertise into the academic program by inviting specialized guest artists and researchers.
