Game Design and Culture
Due to newly emerging technological medias including social media, IoT, and etc, Big Data and information that is customized to our lives are considered very importantly. In addition, we still try to create intimate experiences through those various media technologies. In order to interact with myself and other people, and to understand deeply about our lives and our society by expressing our selves, becoming an interaction and information design expert will be a fun method to breathe in the contemporary age.

My classes are designed to challege your mind. We are so bogged down to only working on "processed mind," leaving very little room to create your own think tank.Take brave steps and let your mind travel freely, where at the end you will find the true meaning of creativeness. Take pictures that can enhance your thought process, do something you always wanted to do, but thought you could never do. My class is open to all kinds of experimental process. There is no wrong answer.

Common Design and Community
If the past were an era of standard designs, nowadays it is an era of service design, and the future would be a generation for a customized design.

Design History
Design History strives to explore the different historical events, artistic media, technological changes and various philosophical theories, so as to provide us with the cognitive and methodological tools we need to place our own works in a broader social, economic and cultural phenomena. History helps us to assert that design is not a fall-back profession for aspiring artists, but an independent practice with its own culture. Furthermore, It would be crucial to develop analytical and critical abilities to interprete our current design activities.
Introduction to Information and Interaction Design, Idea Visualization, Information and Perception, Interaction Design, Senior Project, Techno-Art Capstone Project
Information (how we perceive) and Interaction (how we act) are central to everything that surrounds us in daily lives. Without a deeper understanding and exploration into both themes, we still can make functional artifacts but cannot design for truly engaging and meaningful experiences.
