Industrialization had severely changed people's everyday lives and WWI had shown the brutal potential of these new technologies. At this time, design and architecture had been struggling to find a new language that was appropriate for these radically changing means of production. In this fragile situation the architect Walter Gropius managed to gather some of the finest artists and designers of his era and founded a new school where art and design were taught in a completely new way. How could the Bauhaus achieve this? With the Bauhaus Manifesto, Gropius took inspiration from the idea of the Bauhütte, the mystical design studio of the ancient cathedrals, where all crafts were united to make one holistic vision come to life. At the same time, students of the Bauhaus were encouraged to take matters into their own hands. In different workshops they were free to experiment with craft techniques and as a result produced a range of experimental works. This approach allowed students and masters to quickly overcome traditional thinking about form, color, and space and extract from this creative exploration what would come to be known as the International Style, the first global design language that continues to shape our reality today. One hundred years later, we find ourselves in a similar situation. New technologies demand new design solutions yet specialization will not necessarily lead us down the right path. Much like the Bauhaus dreamed of art, life, and craft as a holistic gesamtkunstwerk (total work of art), working with TouchDesigner allows us to integrate all art disciplines into one experience that permeates both the real and the virtual. In an homage to the early Bauhaus, instructor Stefan Kraus will guide workshop participants through five exercises, that speculate on how five famous Bauhaus masters would have used TouchDesigner to implement their ideas and teachings. Instructor: Stefan Kraus The work of Berlin-based VJ artist and director Stefan Kraus (aka ‘Studio MXZEHN’) explores the fusion of media, space, and performance. Emerging from East Germany's vivid electronic music scene, his work has moved beyond the experimental club environment and into the world of art exhibitions, media festivals, and theatre performances across Europe. Studio MXZEHN’s visuals are not a collage of prefabricated loops but the live performance of a custom-built, generative visual instrument. Parallel to his artistic career Kraus has been teaching interaction design at the Bauhaus-University in Weimar where he co-founded the Genius Loci Weimar Festival, an annual competition for architectural projection mapping. Today, more than ever, Kraus is driven by the idea of the gesamtkunstwerk - an artistic vision that completely immerses the audience. Website: http://www.mxzehn.de/
