Program Description

Media Arts explores strategies, devices and technologies that carry, change, and effect messages, narratives, images, sounds, and experiences. We focus on interactivity (how artists create a dialogue between art and audience) and time-based art (the expressive use of technology). Media Arts students learn how to use sensors, circuits, mechanical devices, video, film, sound, performance art, and multimedia to express themselves.

About the School

AUArts acknowledges that it rests on the traditional Treaty 7 territories of the Blackfoot people. In the spirit of our efforts to promote reconciliation, we acknowledge the traditional territories and oral practices of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Piikani and Kainai), the Tsuut’ina (Sarcee), the Stoney Nakoda First Nations (Bearspaw, Chiniki and Wesley), the Metis Nation (Region 3) and all those who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.

Since 1926, AUArts has inspired thousands of students to pursue their dreams.

As Alberta's only dedicated art, craft and design institution, we're proud to play an important role in nurturing creativity and driving innovation in our province and worldwide. From our academic programs to grass-roots community partnerships, a lot is going on at AUArts – we hope you'll join us.
