Over the course of our two year program, students produce a diversity of work in a variety of media, including scholarly papers, curatorial programs, interactive performances, social practice, and web-based projects. During their first year, students often organize a microfestival as a way to workshop new ideas and present works in progress, many of which inform their thesis work. In their second year, students work closely with advisors in CHRA to complete a thesis project, with funding and production support from the program.
