BA Media Arts and Design

In the early twenty-first century, "media" and “design” have become central terms. Media includes a wide range of storage and communication technologies. Design is no longer a term used simply to describe surface aesthetics or ornamentation, but has become a field that now encompasses a wide range of human interactions with the devices, environments, and communities that shape daily life. Overall, designed digital and networked media inspire feelings of attachment as well as frustration with few rivals in any contemporary cultural sphere. If you consider the number of screens in your immediate vicinity, it becomes evident how substantial an impact media arts and design have on the ways we learn, work, play, think, act, and communicate.
