mehr zu den Vortragenden

Das Masterstudium Interface Cultures bietet ein starkes internationales Netzwerk. Studierende werden angeregt, sich an internationalen Austauschprogrammen mit unseren Partneruniversitäten in Europa, Südamerika, Asien und Australien zu beteiligen. Diese Austauschprogramme helfen ihnen, ein eigenes professionelles Netzwerk aufzubauen und Berufserfahrungen sowie Einblicke in andere Kulturen zu gewinnen. Im Laufe der Jahre ist unser Netzwerk gewachsen. Zahlreiche internationale Gastforschende aus Japan, Europa, Brasilien und anderen lateinamerikanischen Ländern haben Forschungsaufenthalte von einem Monat bis zu einem Jahr in der Abteilung Interface Cultures verbracht.

Here we will reflect on past and future trends in interactive art, interface design and education through lectures by our international partner university representatives.

Our guests are: Prof. Masahiro Miwa from the IAMAS Institute of Media Arts and Sciences in Ogaki Gifu (Japan), Prof. Marie-Hélène Tramus from the Université Paris 8, Département des Arts & Technologies de l’Image (France), Prof. Dr. Maria José Martinez de Pison from the Máster en Artes Visuales y Multimedia, Departamento de Escultura, Facultad de Bellas Artes at Valencia Polytechnical University (Spain), Prof. Dr. Ying-Qing Xu from the Information Art & Design Department at Tshinghua University in Beijing (China), Prof. Philip Dean, Head of Department of Media at Aalto University, Helsinki (Finland), Prof. Stahl Stenslie from the Art and Technology Department of Aalborg University (Denmark) and Prof. Istek Cihangir from the Visual Communication Design Department at Bilgi University in Istanbul (Turkey).
The Interface Cultures programme provides a strong international network, and students are encouraged to participate in international exchanges with our partner universities in Europe, South America, Asia and Australia. These exchanges have helped our students to create a professional network for themselves and to gain professional experience and insight into other cultures. Over the years, our network has grown, and many international guest researchers from Japan, Europe, Brazil and other Latin American countries have visited the Interface Cultures Department for research stays from one month up to one full year.
