Engage with technology hands-on. Disassemble it. Grasp its inner workings. Then harness it to craft innovative fusions of artistic expression, methodology, and delivery through electronic, video, or performance platforms. For those eager to investigate connections between cutting-edge media technologies and traditional fine arts, this program offers the perfect opportunity.

Tailor your educational journey: mix and match video art, performance art, robotics, sound installations, and immersive environments, or concentrate deeply on specific areas. Master coding and digital tools to pioneer fresh artistic encounters. Alternatively, draw inspiration from dance, theater, or sculpture, transforming your physical presence into a performance medium.

Most importantly, embrace experimentation and curiosity. Our professional-grade chroma-key studio, video editing labs, and extensive equipment inventory provide exceptional support for your creative endeavors. Enjoy unparalleled access to advanced production facilities for video, audio, digital, robotic, and performance projects. The equipment depot offers an array of resources—from audio recording devices and lighting to projectors, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, and various sensors.

Merge your exploration of media arts, emerging technologies, and cross-disciplinary approaches with an Intermedia major. Picture an academic setting where electronic arts, video production, performance art, immersive installations, and sound art converge. This program caters to artists seeking to bridge the gap between innovative media tools and conventional visual arts.
