Our focus is on the development of innovative content for the new school subject »Computer Science, AI and Media Education« in Baden-Württemberg, in particular for the minor subject »Intermedia Design« (IMG) as an extension of the fine arts. The aim is to promote spatial thinking and aesthetic perception by combining analogue and digital processes with creative design. IMG utilises the interrelationship of different media as an interdisciplinary aesthetic process to create visual interfaces with a high level of resonance. With dARwing, we open up the possibility of action-orientated learning with AI.

Our focus:

Spatial visualisation: training through three-dimensional drawing in physical space 

Motor and cognitive skills: Improvement through active body movement while creating (EC)

Innovative means of expression: Combination of analogue and digital approaches for creative design 

Experience-orientated learning: promoting self-efficacy and creativity through interactive and immersive educational processes

• Living environment and surroundings / architecture
• Body and space
• Play and performance
• Time-based and digital media

dARwing turns the body into a drawing tool and is suitable for different age groups and educational contexts. It integrates aspects such as specific art spaces, built and staged spaces as well as digital spaces with the inclusion of AR, MR and AI technologies. This innovative approach expands the visual arts subject through interactive concepts, conceptual thinking and interdisciplinary aspects, which is particularly valuable for art teaching and schools in general.
