The Master's programme is inter-, trans-, multi- and even non-disciplinary in nature and is aimed at students from all subject areas who want to break down disciplinary boundaries in their artistic practice and open up new paths in the long term. Registration for admission runs from 1 February to 28 March 2025. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Univ.-Prof. of Photography & New Media / Art Education

The research project investigates the combination of textile and sound. The aesthetic potential of the textile-sound combination is explored and new possibilities of artistic expression are explored. Textile is an interactive medium and metaphor in its form of presentation and interpretation. Textile is material that uses certain techniques without naming the material or technology itself, similar to architecture. The term sound encompasses the artistic fields of sound art, music, ambient noise, transacoustic fields and silence. Sound is based on a conceptual compositional process in terms of the organisation of sounds, but also has a physical aspect in that the perception of sound is strongly linked to bodily processes such as breath, movement and heart rate.
