About IIM:
The Institute of Intermedia (IIM) promotes study and advanced transdisciplinary research in technology, science, performance and the arts. IIM supports collaborations between students, artists, academics and scientists from a range of disciplines and countries.
Intermedial research implies exchanges founded on disciplinary-based concepts, practices and methodologies advancing specific disciplinary inquiries while creating new and interdisciplinary academic and artistic concepts and applications.
IIM was established in 2007 as a cooperative platform by three universities: Electrotechnical and Architecture Faculty of The Czech Technical University, Academy of Performing Arts and Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design. Currently Czech Technical University and Academy of Performing Arts are cooperating on the project.
IIM is an transdisciplinary graduate program that combines innovative tendencies and strategies in different areas of art, design, science and technology. It offers an unparalleled opportunity for working at following areas:
emergent media
computer science
engineering
radio and television
electronic music
locative media
soundart
lightdesign
interactive installations
experimental stage design
digital art research
all subjects combines practice, production, and theory.
Our general research goal is to explore possibilities in technologically sophisticated art and electronic media, both from an artistic and an engineering viewpoint. Merging art, science, engineering, and theory, IIM graduate studies provide students to achieve an unique combination of critical and technical knowledge, that prepare them for artistic, engineering, production/direction, educational, and research professional career.
IIM students choose an emphasis in one of areas (multimedia engineering, electronic sound and light design, visual, performing and spatial arts) and work with other students and faculties in collaborative, multidisciplinary research projects and courses.
IIM research interests include subjects as: multimedia, digital video, experimental 3D computer sculpture, experimental animation, locative media, digital imaging, net art, installation, sound, transarchitectures and urban studies, virtual and mixed realities, performance and experimental stage design, interactive installations, electronic and generative music synthesis, multi-channel spatialized sound, human-computer interaction, motion-capture and distributed sensing, digital signal processing, wireless broadband, or algorithmic morphogenesis.
