Media Technology alumna Marianne Bossema has received a doctoral grant for teachers. This grant enables teachers to spend five years doing research that will eventually lead to a PhD graduation. Marianne will do her research on social robotics, under supervision of Leiden University's Rob Saunders.
The “Hello World!” series focuses on new encounters and new inspiration, inviting seven speakers with hugely varying backgrounds to give us their perspectives on what they see as currently important. The fourth speaker is Zane Kripe, antropologist, and Media Technology MSc programme alumna.
For the next "What’s Next?" talk series we have invited two former Media Technology students - Jeroen Jillissen (Google) and Marcin Pakulnicki (ING Bank) to talk about their journeys after Media Technology, and considering their positions, to reflect on what it means to be developing technologies that are used by vast amounts of people.
We are delighted that our annual "Science to Experience" exhibition will again be hosted by the V2_ Lab for the Unstable Media, June 9-12. Students were challenged to communicate their own science-inspired statements as experiences within the exhibition, this year along the theme "HYBRID".
The “Hello World!” series focuses on new encounters and new inspiration, inviting seven speakers with hugely varying backgrounds to give us their perspectives on what they see as currently important. The third speaker is Frans W. Saris, former Dean of Science, physicist, science writer, and critical supporter of the Media Technology MSc programme.
How to get a PhD position is clouded in mystery. In one afternoon, Peter van der Putten and Maarten Lamers talk about how (they think) the game is played.
The “Hello World!” series focuses on new encounters and new inspiration, inviting seven speakers with hugely varying backgrounds to give us their perspectives on what they see as currently important. The second speaker is Teun Verkerk, who brings together artists and scientists in innovative projects, stimulating future technologies, and reflecting upon scientific invention and its challenges for society at large.
The world is slowly opening again, allowing for new encounters and new inspiration. In the new "Hello World!" lecture series, we invite seven speakers with varying backgrounds to give us their perspectives on what is currently happening in the world and what they thereby see as important. The first speaker was Lev Manovich, world-renowned innovator in digital humanities and theorist of digital culture and media art, with his lecture "AI and Myths of Creativity".
We are excited to restart the Media Technology alumni talk series, organized by students, for students and alumni. Upcoming edition will bring us two alumni to share their unique journeys after Media Technology: Ella Keijzer and Bastiaan Terhorst.
On Friday February 25, student Mitchell Bosch will present his Media Technology MSc graduation thesis work. In 20-25 minutes Mitchell will present his project, followed by 10-15 minutes public discussion. Everyone is invited to attend. The presentation is in English.
