Over the past four semesters , the (Un)Learning Digitalities project – a programme focusing on the practice and theory of digital technology – has worked with HGB lecturers, students, artists, designers and academics to develop a wide-ranging programme on the benefits and use of digital media.
Among other things, the student-run Game Lab has produced its own HGB computer game: HGlitchB is a walk-through online version of the HGB. With the help of extensive 3D scans, visitors can explore the university virtually, discover student-made games and projects, watch recorded lectures from the (Un)Learning Digitalities programme, and access information about the university’s key facilities.
HGlitchB was developed by Tobias Kurpat, who graduated this year with a diploma from the Class for Artistic Practice and Research at the HGB.
The project is co-funded by the European Union and is partly financed by tax revenue based on the budget approved by the Saxon State Parliament.
