Course Summary

This course allows you to explore a subject-specific practice in the expanding creative industry and its wider confines. You will consider the role of technology in society, whilst developing projects that look to explore the relevance, importance and future of this industry through analysis, experimentation and implementation of creative ideas.Throughout the course, you will be encouraged to undertake independent contextual and theoretical research that will improve your capacity for independent enquiry, creativity and professional practice. The course places an emphasis on problem setting rather than problem solving, through the development of self-initiated projects and briefs.There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in live projects as we work closely with key cultural organisations within the North West.

Modules

The new MA Creative Technology will integrate artistic skills and expertise with applied technologies. You will research and discover emerging technologies around which an appropriate analysis will be applied to developed bodies of practice. You will engage with programming and coding tools, games design and software relevant to many forms of employment in the arts, allowing you to better understand, for example, how UX (user experience) and UI (user interface) are understood and enhanced in creative projects.
