信息学哲学博士-艺术和文化信息学

艺术和文化信息学是信息学的一个领域，涉及作为艺术生产，经验和传播的媒介和​​内容的信息。拥有艺术和文化信息学领域的信息学博士在其设计中明确满足了这些需求：它使技术知识（理论和实践）成为课程的内在部分，它利用广泛的学科课程来建立跨学科的广度，它强调创新的跨学科协作研究，旨在应对在协作，跨学科，技术支持的环境中创造艺术的挑战。文化信息学是一个广泛的术语，涵盖了新信息技术的应用将并且可能影响人类文化的所有领域：我们看到它在文化生产，经验，传播和理解中发挥着越来越重要的作用。这本质上是边界突破，从根本上讲是跨学科
Art and Cultural Informatics is an area of informatics dealing with information as medium and content for art production, experience, and dissemination. The Informatics PhD, with an Art and Cultural Informatics Area, addresses these needs explicitly in its design: it makes technological knowledge (theoretical and practical) an intrinsic part of the curriculum, it draws on a wide base of disciplinary courses to establish interdisciplinary breadth, it emphasizes innovative interdisciplinary, collaborative research aimed specifically at meeting the challenges of creating art in collaborative, interdisciplinary, technologically enabled settings. Cultural Informatics is a broad term encompassing all areas in which the application of new information technologies will and might impact human culture: we see it playing an increasingly central role in culture production, experience, dissemination, and comprehension. It is inherently boundary breaking, fundamentally inter- multi- and trans-disciplinary. Informatics, broadly speaking, is impacting all branches of knowledge, all human exploration, experience, and understandings of the world. Cultural Informatics is that part of informatics that emphasizes understanding of the human world, that which is made or influenced by humanity: from history, social science, cultural studies, to written, visual, sonic, and kinetic communication, technology is transforming all aspects of human endeavor, all culture, all societies and communities. The Arts are an important part of Cultural Informatics. New technology and associated new modes of creative cultural expression and communication will radically transform the arts of the 21st Century. The impact of new technologies will be felt in four key areas: it will change the practice, the experience, and the dissemination of the arts, and through these it will change the role of the arts in culture and society.
