Research
Media technology is an inter- and transdisciplinary field that focuses on digital technology, visual, audio and interactive expression. The research specifically focuses on digital experiences in physical environments and stretches from concept and idea development via prototype design to testing and evaluation.
The research is based on an inter- and transdisciplinary perspective, with roots in computer and technoscience, and revolves around digital technology, as well as video and audio expressions. The research extends from concept and idea development through prototype design to testing and evaluation in close collaboration with participating partners. We are particularly interested in creating digital experiences for physical environments.
