Meanwhile you are expected to explore a wealth of new technologies, developing an articulate understanding of the potential for their use in digital design, sound and performance. | 
 
| Course description | 
    
    The course will run as a studio with iterative development, group discussion, design development, presentations, criticism, and feedback. Tuition will be provided in the use of specialist tools and devices where applicable.
