<b>MA Curating New Media Art </b>is a unique programme delivered by the Liverpool School of Art and Design in collaboration with FACT (Foundation for Art & Creative Technology) and supported by Arts Council England North West. Working with an unparalleled network of partners, students will enjoy an enhanced experience, which includes FACT as the core course partner and Tate Liverpool providing an option module. Course resources also include strong affiliations with events like Futuresonic, the international urban festival of electronic music and arts as well as access to conferences and the expertise of an impressive team of lecturers and curators. <br>
<br>
Throughout the year-long MA programme students explore and critically appraise projects in curating, creating and contextualising New Media Art. All students are introduced to a range of analytical and theoretical skills and approaches pertinent to the study of historical and contemporary material.<br>
<br>
The programme offers a postgraduate qualification for students interested in the study of current and emerging areas of curatorial practice. It allows students to formulate and test their ideas in a range of arenas including exhibition, symposium and thesis.<br>
<br>
MA Curating New Media Art offers both a practical and theoretical negotiation of the working methods of new media curatorial practice and the wider gallery system via projects concerning historical, current and emerging practice.<br>
<br>
Our programme is led by an exceptional international team that includes:<br>
<br>
<b>Colin Fallows </b>is Professor of Sound and Visual Arts, Chair of Research, and Head of Department of Contextual Studies at the Liverpool School of Art and Design, Liverpool John Moores University. He has explored crossovers between sound and the visual arts as an artist, researcher, curator, lecturer and has produced work for live ensemble performance, recordings, exhibition, installation, radio and the Internet. <br>
<br>
<b>Mike Stubbs</b>, recently appointed Director of FACT, (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology), was formerly Head of Exhibitions at ACMI (the Australian Centre for Moving Image). His work as Director of Hull Time Based Arts first won him recognition as a primary promoter of new media and performance art in an international context.<br>
<br>
<b>Dr Julie Sheldon </b>is Reader in Art History at the Liverpool School of Art and Design, Liverpool John Moores University. <b>Laura Sillars </b>is Senior Curator (Collaboration Programme) at FACT and was formerly Curator of Public Programmes at Tate Liverpool. <b>Gina Czarnecki’s </b>artwork intersects multiple disciplines exploring biology, technology, systems of classification and identification. <b>Iliyana Nedkova </b>is a curator, producer and critic of contemporary art and design, and a Researcher in Curatorial Theory and Practice at the Liverpool School of Art and Design, Liverpool John Moores University.<br>
<br>
Drawing on the expertise of established researchers in Art and Design, including Associate Researchers and Visiting Lecturers, this MA aims to identify and explore broad critical debates relating to theory and practice, to extend awareness and analysis of practices and to examine critically a range of advanced curatorial methodologies. Core modules allow students the academic space to develop their own projects. Modules are organised to provide a framework for students to enhance and consolidate their intellectual and practical achievements. <br>
<br>
As part of the programme, students are encouraged to make links with key local organisations as appropriate, including FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology), Liverpool Biennial, Tate Liverpool, Bluecoat Arts Centre, and National Museums Liverpool.<br>
