Working across artistic disciplines, students examine diverse applications of AR and VR (augmented & virtual reality), AI (artificial intelligence), interactive design, game design, immersive environments, and urban media interventions. Students customise their programme with electives in performance studies, documentary film, and writing for computer games alongside core modules that draw from 21st century visual art, sound art, interactive art, and new media art, leading to an independent project focused on their own practice or research.
