Lecture notes

Reading- Listening – Writing and Speaking sessions

It is a particular first year course that does not require any prerequisite

This course is able to sensitize students to the generally various subjective aspects of beauty and the feelings it causes. The aim is to train students’ eyes, spirit and critical sense and to make them feel through a systematic analysis of various elements what influences aesthetics.

A significant chapter will develop students ‘sensitivity compared to the arising of virtual art.

Aesthetic phenomenon analysis and critics:

Definition of the terms ' aesthetics ', ' industrial design ',

To express feelings and ideas,

The first demonstrations, beliefs, mirrors of societies,

Aesthetics and the character, the memory and the image, proportions, composition, colour, form, shade, light, volumes, repetition, alternation, stylization, etc...,

Typographical, industrial and design aesthetics

Learning how to read and interpret selected works of art.

Histoire de l’art de René HUYGHE

L’art et l’homme de René HUYGHE

Actalized referencies.

The various matters of the program will be approached as a practitioner, the comparative and critical analysis of art works being especially selected to highlight the fundamental rules and criteria which govern the laws of aesthetic. Some practical composition exercises will be proposed to the students so as to enable them to check some constant laws of application.

It is obvious that these exercises apply only to the development of aesthetic criteria without another claim and does not approach the technical aspect of these problems.

Integrating basics notions of object oriented programming with JavaScript 1.5.

• Basics concepts (script, instructions, APIs, identifier, reserved keywords, value, data type, variable, affectation, function, object, object's hierarchy, classes, expressions , the alert(), prompt() and confirm()methods)
• Instructions (empty instruction, « var » instruction, «if» instruction, « for », « while » et « do-while » instructions, expression's instruction with side effect).
• Values (the undefined value, the numbers, strings, booleans, tables and functions) as literal values or as objects.
• Expressions (by combining the differents operations: « . », « [] », « () », « * », « / », « % », « + » (addition), « + » (concaténation), « - » (soustraction), « < », « <= », « > », « >= », « instanceof », « in », « == », « != », « === », « !== », « && », « || », « , », « new », « ++ », « -- », « - » (unary), « + » (unary), « ! », « delete », « typeof », « ?: », « = », « += », « -= », « *= », « /= » et « %= ») and the priorities of each operation.
• Alternatives (if,?: and switch)
• Tables (literals and Array objects, associatives tables and objects, the «for-in» loop)
• The loops (while, do-while, for) + break and continue in loops.
