Art and Digital Media

Art encourages self-expression, creativity, and social change, and the rise of digital culture transforms how we share ideas and aesthetic experiences that resonate with us and our communities. Our fluid digital media ecosystem offers new forms of interaction across traditional and hybrid art forms (e.g., food, games, journalism, literature, music, and visual arts) using a variety of technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence, video streaming, social media, and virtual reality). How might we (re)shape the perspectives and power of content creators, curators, and consumers, increase engagement with cultural centers, and expand our understanding of our real and imagined worlds?
