Abstract: This article explores how hybrid learning (HL) can be successfully integrated into the practice-based visual communication design (VCD) curriculum at Stellenbosch University (SU), South Africa, to enhance future teaching, learning, and curriculum renewal. This was approached from a sociomaterial perspective. Data were collected and analysed iteratively amongst students and lecturers involved in the curriculum. Data stemming from multiple sources were integrated in visual format, thus allowing a consolidated experience of HL to emerge. This experience was translated into a first-person narrative to enable the affective forces constituting it to become felt. It was found that to effectively integrate HL into the studio-based VCD curriculum, the studio must become an environment that fully supports the needs of dispersed, transdigital subjects; learning content and structures need to be simplified and remain consistent to facilitate the regulation of students' emotions; and the format/s of learning content must support process-driven, embodied learning experiences.
