Digital & Media Art

Art made with — and about — technology.

Installation, projection, sensors, screens: media art uses technology as material and often as subject. It is the fine-art end of the art×tech spectrum, at home in galleries as much as on devices.

What students make

  • Interactive installations and experiments
  • Screen-based and projection work
  • Documentation — media art lives or dies by how it's recorded

Where it leads

  • Media artist
  • Creative technologist
  • Exhibition and experience design
  • Research and teaching

Directions, not promises — careers are built from the work, and the work starts now.

The portfolio

What reviewers look for.

Document relentlessly: video of people interacting with the work carries more weight than stills. Show the technical sketchbook alongside the concept one.

Could digital & media art be their lane?
