[spectre] Postgraduate course in cultural innovation: arts, digital media and popular culture

[Lucia Arias]

Postgraduate course in cultural innovation: arts, digital media and popular
culture 

Organized jointly by UOC-Universitat Oberta de Catalunya and LABoral Centro
de Arte y Creación Industrial

 

The postgraduate course in cultural innovation: arts, digital media and
popular culture provides the basic concepts needed to understand and analyse
the changes and transformations related to culture and society as well as
knowledge about new artistic and contemporary cultural productions that have
been transformed by information and communication technologies, the dynamism
of cultural industries and globalization. 

 

This postgraduate programme will integrate different analytic perspectives
to understand and improve the relation between culture and society,
technology, the economy, the communication media and the arts. To achieve
this, we will examine the most relevant case studies and will collaborate
with specialists from the art world, as well as experts in culture,
research, the media and industry, analyzing in real time those elements that
we examine on the theoretical, methodological and practical level.

 

The programme fits in with professional studies in the arts and humanities
as well as with advanced communication studies, but it also has a clear
connection with creative industries and cultural management. 

 

This course is intended as much for those who want to study the arts and
culture of today as well as professionals and artists working in the field
of the arts, culture, communication media and creative industries.
