‘Digital technologies and Art’ offers an approach to the use of multimedia software to carry out projects using work with multimedia formats (mainly audio, video and photo) with the aim of creating prototypes and projects with Klynt software. The subject is based on a first phase of face-to-face classes (8 hours) and the rest of the semester videoconferences with the entire group every 2 weeks and 2 specific practices:
1 - Individual practice: it consists of the realization of a prototype portfolio by each student of the master DIA.
2 - Group practice: it consists in the development of a group project that has something to do with the field of art using the Klynt tool.

Documentary models illustrating these aspects will be analyzed.
The main objective of the course is to identify an interdisciplinary theoretical framework for the analysis of performative artistic productions incorporating digital technologies in order to equip the artists with the skills and competences needed in a multidisciplinary team able to perform intermedia productions. The theorization of intermedia / multimedia artistic expressions, on the one hand, and the development of an academic training program in art from an interdisciplinary perspective, on the other hand, will create the premises for the development of new models of artistic expressions, aligned with the European and international standards.
The unprecedented development of technologies and electronic media in the XXth Century, as well as the more recent developments of digital technologies and new media formats, have greatly impacted the art forms of representation, generating new genres of art. The course will develop advanced skills of analysis and understanding of how digital art representation and new models of distribution affect the making and reception of works of art, as well as the spread of ideas and the forming of social relationships, within the context of contemporary digital culture.
