Research cluster Mediated Environments

At Mediated Environments, we explore the boundaries of novel digital technologies through the application of art and design. We create artistic work as a means to pursue inquiries into the conceptual, political and societal aspects of interaction, space and media.

Our research spans the area of media art, human-computer-interaction, data visualization, human-data-interaction, participatory media, artistic cartography, citizen participation and extended reality.
