The Center for Image Science, where many MediaArtHistories courses take place, is housed in a 14th century Monastary, remodeled to fit the needs of modern research in singular surroundings. With its new modular courses starting in November 2006 the Center for Image Science (CIS) at Danube University offers an educational program unique in Europe. Without interrupting their career students have the opportunity to learn through direct, hands-on experience, social learning in small groups and contacts with commerce and industry. They gain key qualifications for the contemporary art and media marketplace. International experts analyze the image worlds of art, science, politics and economy and elucidate how they originated, became established and how they have stood the test of time. The innovative approach at CIS is reinforced by praxis-oriented study, for example, of new types of image and video databases and the application of advanced processes for converting image collections into digital form. The post-graduate MA courses offer instruction in a finely tuned mix of practical skills, theoretical knowledge and close cooperation with top researchers and professionals from the international image science community. => First international Master in MEDIA.ART.HISTORIES (English language) The postgraduate program MediaArtHistories conveys the most important developments of contemporary art through a network of renowned international theorists, artists and curators like Steve Dietz, Erkki Huhtamo, Lev Manovich, Christiane Paul, Paul Sermon, Oliver Grau and many others. Using online databases and other modern aids, knowledge of computer animation, net art, interactive, telematic and genetic art as well as the most recent reflections on nano art, CAVE installations, augmented reality and wearables are introduced. Historical derivations that go far back into art and media history are tied in intriguing ways to digital art. Important approaches and methods from Image Science, Media Archaeology and the History of Science & Technology will be discussed. Media Art History offers a basis for understanding evolutionary history of audiovisual media, from the Laterna Magica to the Panorama, Phantasmagoria, Film, and the Virtual Art of recent decades. http://www.donau-uni.ac.at/mediaarthistories www.virtualart.at Application Deadlines: June 15th, Sept. 15th 2006 => Course Image & Science (English language) Have you ever asked yourself: "How do I get on the Cover of Nature?" The program Image & Science conveys in-depth knowledge of the history, aesthetics and practice of scientific visualization. Based on historically established image competency it demonstrates the latest possibilities of exemplifying scientific data and results in a visual form and helps professionals in the field to achieve quick results and improve their way of presenting their work. Various forms of visual information are being included - from statistical analysis and diagrams, plans and technical drawings to visualizations in natural sciences like in Medicine or Nanotechnology or displays of fluidity. The close cooperation of natural scientists, IT-professionals, historians, artists and designers contribute to the interlacing of the complementary perspectives of natural sciences and the cultural and historical approach. http://www.donau-uni.ac.at/imageandscience Application Deadlines: April 30, June 30, September 1, 2006 Master Programs in German => Course BILDMANAGEMENT, MA (Image Management, MA) http://www.donau-uni.ac.at/bildmanagement Application Deadlines: June 30th, Sept. 1st => Course FOTOGRAFIE / BILDWISSENSCHAFT, MA (Photography/Image Science, MA) http://www.donau-uni.ac.at/fotografie Application Deadlines: June 30th, Sept. 1st => Course IKONOGRAPHIE / BILDWISSENSCHAFT, MA (Iconography/Image Science, MA) http://www.donau-uni.ac.at/ikonographie Application Deadlines: June 30th, Sept. 1st => CONTACT and REGISTRATION: Mag.
