Department of New Media & Applied Arts
The diversity of visual, auditory, moving and time-dependent media, their emergent forms, conditions, effects and functions are at the department’s center of research and education. The fusion of New Media and Applied Graphics is important for the students’ individual artistic development and is a consistent aspect of conceptual and project-based courses.
The primary project studies foster artistic practice, usage and the combination of intercultural, industrial and hybrid media to create a multidisciplinary discourse between Art and Research. Students are able to develop topical drafts, experiments and works that can be spatial, urban, performative, conceptual, phot- and videographic, illustrative, internet-based and much more.
Exhibition and group projects with external cooperations as well as individual conversations about works are an essential part of the courses and will be mentored by consultations until the end of the working process. The experimental, open and likewise discursive climate brings with it a steady foundation to adress, analyze and eventually discover unconventional solutions for regional and global questions of our current and contemporary society.
