Fall 2022

This class gives you exposure to a variety of emerging technologies that can impact how media is produced or consumed. Assignments are meant to give you a basic understanding of how to create content using a variety of digital tools, rather than mastery of them. The final project is to either run a field test for a media hypothesis using an emerging tech of your choice, or write a research paper about an emerging technology and how it may influence media. Topics covered include:

•  XR (VR, AR, MR)
• Aerial video with drones
• Environmental sensing
• Chat bots and AI
• Smart speakers
• Data visualization
• Coding for emerging platforms
