In COM354 - Critical Media Making, students build speculative media objects as a way to challenge normative frameworks, imagine equitable realities, and exercise critique. Throughout the semester, students engaged with various media-making exercises as a strategy to produce critiques of relevant social issues. Projects include a merchandising line that supports voting rights, dust jacket designs for banned books, and short-format videos produced using artificial intelligence.
