Introduktion
Art and Emerging Technologies MA utforskar experimentella tillämpningar av kreativ teknik i konstpraktik, utvecklingen av avancerade digitala färdigheter och deras inverkan på samhället, kulturen och miljön.
Du kommer att uppmuntras att betrakta teknik som en integrerad del av den kreativa processen, ge dig ut på en upptäcktsresa och leta efter innovativa vägar för att expandera och berika din praktik. Detta kan inkludera att samarbeta med teknik, utnyttja potentialen i interaktioner mellan människa och dator, skapa berättelser genom transmediatekniker, främja publikens engagemang och deltagande kulturer, skapa interaktiva objekt och konstruera och transformera fysiska och digitala utrymmen.
Studiopraxis och laborationer möjliggör uppfinningsrik användning av avancerad teknologi, såsom virtuell och förstärkt verklighet, geolokaliseringsteknologier, virtuell produktion, fotogrammetri, fysisk datoranvändning, kreativ kodning, sensorteknik, bärbara innovationer, interaktiva miljöer och kreativ tillämpning av artificiell intelligens .
Kursen svarar mot kraven från den kreativa industrin för mångsidiga, fantasifulla och tekniskt skickliga akademiker och lägger stor vikt vid professionella färdigheter. Genom kärnmoduler och en årslång Professional Practice-modul kommer du att engagera dig i verkliga projekt som utmanar praxis och konventioner för digital konst och kreativa medier. Du kommer att skapa arbete för olika målgrupper, plattformar och sammanhang, samarbeta med gemenskaper och nätverk och ta itu med verkliga briefer och branschutmaningar.
