Introduction
Develop interactive audiovisual environments and experiences for recreational, cultural, exhibition, and/or commercial spaces that generate unique emotions for users.
The need for technicians and creatives who understand interactive media and generative language; who can see and understand the possibilities and limits of technology as a creative and narrative tool; and who know how to propose and create projects or prototypes that make use of such possibilities and validate their ideas.
This Master’s Degree in Audiovisual Innovation and Interactive Environments is composed of four interrelated thematic modules that deal with the disciplines and themes of visual culture; art and new media; real-time video; off-screen audiovisual; motion graphics; generative graphics; physical interaction design; tangible interaction; interaction systems design; interactive narrative; generative audio; musical composition and sound design; electronic prototyping; the design, control, and simulation of light; digital manufacturing; wearables; virtual reality; mathematics and physics for audiovisual...
Students must develop a Master's Degree Final Project in which the acquired knowledge is applied to demonstrate that they have mastered these technical and creative skills with a sufficient degree of audiovisual and/or interactive innovation, and determine the feasibility of the project (budget, subsidies) and its positioning (art market, institutions, festivals).
This master's degree is aimed at audiovisual students from all disciplines (directors, producers, lighting engineers, soundtrack creators, and sound designers, as well as programmers, animators, and graphic designers in general), Audiovisual Communication, Fine Arts, and Design students who are interested in technology, new media, and interactivity; as well as professionals and engineering students who wish to acquire a deeper understanding of creativity in digital audiovisual media and interaction and want to expand their visual and aesthetic culture. The course is also intended for Architecture, interior design, and scenography professionals and students who are interested in incorporating technology and new audiovisual media into the space, and for artists of all disciplines who are seeking a new field for experimentation in technology and audiovisuals.
