Introduktion
Art and Emerging Technologies MA udforsker eksperimentelle anvendelser af kreative teknologier i kunstpraksis, udviklingen af avancerede digitale færdigheder og deres indvirkning på samfundet, kulturen og miljøet.
Du vil blive opfordret til at betragte teknologi som en integreret del af den kreative proces, påbegynde en udforskningsrejse og søge innovative retninger for at udvide og berige din praksis. Dette kan omfatte samarbejde med teknologi, udnyttelse af potentialet i menneske-computer-interaktioner, skabelse af fortællinger gennem transmedieteknikker, fremme af publikumsengagement og deltagende kulturer, skabelse af interaktive objekter og konstruktion og transformation af fysiske og digitale rum.
Studiepraksis og laboratorier giver mulighed for opfindsom brug af avancerede teknologier, såsom virtuel og augmented reality, geolokaliseringsteknologier, virtuel produktion, fotogrammetri, fysisk databehandling, kreativ kodning, sensorteknologier, bærbare innovationer, interaktive miljøer og den kreative anvendelse af kunstig intelligens .
Kurset reagerer på den kreative industris krav til alsidige, fantasifulde og teknologisk dygtige kunstkandidater og lægger stor vægt på professionelle færdigheder. Gennem kernemoduler og et årelangt Professional Practice-modul vil du engagere dig i projekter i den virkelige verden, der udfordrer praksis og konventioner inden for digital kunst og kreative medier. Du vil skabe arbejde til forskellige målgrupper, platforme og kontekster, samarbejde med fællesskaber og netværk og tackle den virkelige verden briefs og brancheudfordringer.
