GRADUATE STUDIES IN DIGITAL ART

The Program

The Department of Art and Art History at the University of Colorado has
developed a digital art curriculum with an emphasis in the
following areas of creative research: net art, games, digital
narrative and animation, multi-user VJ performance, interactive
cinema, web publishing, new media theory, and code art. We would like to
foster a critical and collaborative art research environment where
graduate students investigate new areas relevant to their own evolving
art practice.

Location

The University of Colorado is located in Boulder, Colorado, one of the
most beautiful and socially progressive communities in the USA. Located
in the Rocky Mountains, Boulder is an international town that offers a
mixture of learning, creating, hiking, biking,
rock-climbing, rafting, world-class skiing, good food, and a large
percentage of sunny days and clean air. Boulder is also known for its
Beatnik history, Buddhist university, yoga and tai chi, and more
recently, computer, biotech, and game companies. Boulder is located 30
minutes from Denver.

Faculty

The faculty at the Department of Art and Art History are nationally known
artists and art historians whose work encompasses a diverse range of
media (painting, ceramics, sculpture, photography,
experimental video), cultural identities and artistic practices. The
Digital Art area is represented by Professors Mark Amerika, known for his
pioneering work in digital narrative, hypertext, net art, and more
recently VJ performance, and by Anne-Marie Schleiner, an artist, writer,
and game designer whose work is related to digital activism, computer
gaming and gender. Both have been recently selected for the Whitney
Biennial of American Art and have exhibited their work
nationally and internationally. The new Digital Art curriculum was built
on previous computer art courses developed by Professor and Department
Chair Jim Johnson.

Desired Students

Graduate students should be willing to commit to our three year MFA
program and will come to the program with an open mind toward
developing an interdisciplinary art practice. We are particularly
interested in candidates with a strong background in creative areas such
as net art, new media theory and performance, programming or code art,
and interactive narrative.

Financial Support

Most of our graduate students receive either a GPTI teaching position or
Graduate Assistant position in the Digital Art area. Students
accepted to the program also receive a substantial tuition subsidy.

Other Advantages

Digital Art Graduate students have access to the TECHNE lab
facilities which include state of the art Macs, PCs, our new wireless
Experimental Digital Art Studio (EDAS), digital video and audio
hardware, and all of the latest web, audio, video, 3-D, networking, VJ,
and publishing software. Students in our area also have the
ability to meet and share their work with a wide range of visiting
artists and curators: in the last two years our guests have included Mark
Tribe, Giselle Beiguelman, Mary Flanagan, Lisa Jevbratt, Mark Napier, Ben
Benjamin, Yael Kanarek, John Simon, Christiane Paul, Alex Galloway, John
Klima, and DJ Spooky.

More Info?

Visit the Department website at www.colorado.edu/finearts for more
information about Departmental requirements. You can also visit the
student-built TECHNE website featuring the Histories of Internet Art
project at art.colorado.edu. For more information on our Graduate
Program, please email Alexei Bogdanov at alexei.bogdanov.@colorado.edu

Application deadlines:

International students: December 1st
US students: January 15th

The premise of the forum is that it moves around each week so this week
it's on Rhizome RAW

Just the DC forum threads... not the whole list! Just posts from those who
participate. -- Rachel
