Location: Main building Geschwister-Scholl-Platz, AudiMax & B201

Contents

The lecture gives an introductory overview on the most important basic knowledge for the realization of digital media, covering technical topics as well as topics from perceptual psychology. There are no prerequisites in terms of computer science knowledge beyond what is taught in parallel courses. The lecture touches a quite broad spectrum of different disciplines (mathematics, physics, telecommunications, medicine). The lecture is the basis for the lecture "Media Technology" which goes into deeper detail of technology and design aspects. It also provides the basis for more specialized courses on multimedia-related topics.

The lecture course is suitable for:

• Students of Media Informatics and "Art and Multimedia" (Bachelor)
• Students of Media Informatics (Bachelor Minor)

The lecture course is not suitable as "Vertiefendes Thema" for Informatics students.

Course Material

Materials for the course will be provided online via Moodle. Materials comprise e.g. slides and video recordings.
