The Master of Arts in Multimedia Design and Creative AI – one of the pioneers of multimedia research and studies in central and southern Italy – is characterised by its transdisciplinary approach, starting from the awareness of how media and new digital technologies have assumed an increasingly preponderant role within the contemporary creative paradigm. This is a broad field of intervention, capable of ranging across a multitude of disciplinary fields that concern not only the design of installations and installations for large cultural events, curatorship for public and private spaces, but also aesthetic experimentation connected to the languages of artificial intelligence and robotics. The Course therefore intends to provide an excellent training response to the great demand for designers, combining a solid theoretical-critical basis of new technologies with the technical skills of the multimedia expert.
A complete design process.
Within the development process, which concerns both indoor and outdoor contexts, the Course in Multimedia Design and Creative AI will provide students with the necessary tools to identify the right approach to multimedia, in relation to the functional and aesthetic requirements inherent to each project.
From a practical/laboratory point of view, thanks to the Course’s teachings, students will deepen their knowledge of innovative software for design representation, exalting the expressive possibilities derived from advanced media. The teachings cover, among others, multimedia space design, audiovisual performance and sound installations, exhibit design, virtual set design, virtual and augmented reality, artificial intelligence and robotics, multimedia directing and a critical approach to contemporary art in relation to new media.
Career prospects for the future.
The course aims to train a highly specialised professional figure, able to actively participate in the contemporary creative industry, thanks to partnerships with prestigious national and international institutions. Course participants will be able to spend their acquired skills in all situations requiring a critical approach to new technologies, ranging from the institutional to the underground context, through the realisation of projects such as: installations and multimodal spaces, interactive, sound and immersive environments, audiovisual performances, virtual scenographies, videomapping, virtual and augmented reality works and much more. The main objective is to respond to the new artistic and cultural context, opening the door to experimental research through the creation of hybrid figures such as: the multimedia artist, the designer of events, festivals and museums, the curator specialised in the creation of exhibitions revolving around new media, the multimedia communication expert.
The Academic Master of Arts is equivalent to a University Master’s Degree.
*The course is available only in Italian. All lessons include mandatory attendance at RUFA’s locations in Rome.
Lecturers: Daniela Cotimbo, Gianluca Del Gobbo, Francesca Gollo, Lara Forgione, Emanuele Tarducci.
