learning journeys

VLE-X10 is an experimental learning environment designed for digital art courses at UBC.

VLE-X10 explore the potentials of DIGITAL INTERFACES (DI) for the articulation of NEW LEARNING EXPERIENCES attuned to emerging forms of knowledge formation and dissemination, and to new sensibilities shaped by online communications.

VLE-X10 investigates questions such as:

* What are the potentials of the digital interface as a visual artifact for reflecting on contemporary conditions and for the exploration of new artistic languages?

* What new learning experiences become possible within this emerging language?

digital interfaces
are the dominant image of contemporary culture.
They are also our new universal language.

WHAT ARE THEIR POTENTIALS FOR ARTISTIC EXPRESSION?

WHAT ARE THE NEW POTENTIAL PATHS FOR ART?

Inspired by the visual language and allure of video games and online worlds, VLE-X10 envisions learning as a playful odyssey—a journey of discovery across diverse realms, guided by curiosity and intuition.

VLE-X10 is a universe in its infancy. Yet vast uncharted territories await exploration. While it orbits around the visual arts, in an image-centered world it offers pathways for many forms of inquiry and participation.
