About This Exhibit

The Master of Art + Design exhibit features final projects of the 2021 thesis track Master of Art + Design (MAD) candidates.

The MAD program focuses on Experimental Media Arts and encourages students to explore the intersection of digital and material technologies to create interactive and engaging experiences that push the boundaries of storytelling, learning, and play. Graduate project work is backed by rigorous research based on exploration, discovery and historical and contemporary precedents.

Each of the projects in the exhibit features a walkthrough video created by the designer showing the ins and outs of the work; images of the project’s creation to show behind the scene of the making processes; and a brief written overview of the contextual and conceptual aim.

Special thanks to Tania Allen for support and help with this exhibit.
