We see the future of immersive storytelling as an active, connected, social and presence-inducing experience. The Immersive Media concentration is designed to introduce students to technologies and mediums of the future while providing a foundation for creative thinking, considerate design, aesthetic sensitivity and engaging storytelling. This concentration introduces students to new learning experiences through instruction and hands-on experience with the technologies and techniques necessary for producing meaningful and engaging immersive content. Students will learn to question and intervene in the designed spaces of immersive media with the goal of bringing critical awareness to their cultural, social and political impacts and significance.

This track has been discontinued. The information below is only for students who enrolled before fall 2024.

The Performance Media concentration is designed to introduce students to the history of media within live performance and provide opportunities to create a series of creative media works, both individually and collaboratively. Topics may include theatrical projection design, interactive media, video installation, dance for camera, documentation of live performance and performing with media in a live performance setting. Projects are hands-on, student-led works that critically engage questions of media technologies and the live-performing body.

Students in this concentration learn the tools, techniques and technologies of sonic practices ranging from sound art to electronic music to podcast production. A focus on creating a practice of deep and critical listening and exposure to a diversity of sound practitioners challenges students to think creatively and conceptually about sound to broaden both their technological and conceptual understandings of sound, and to enable them to engage constructively and creatively with sonic worlds.

This option allows students to build their own concentration blending aspects of multiple practice areas. This focus teaches students to engage an audience through visual storytelling using a variety of media tools, techniques and technologies. Students interested in integrative media practices must submit a proposal for an individualized plan of study before advancing into this concentration.
