<h1>Master Lens Based Media</h1>
<!-- <p>The Master in Media Design & Communication is an intensive project-based research degree exploring the possibilities released by the friction between media and their related practices. The course does not believe in old media and new media, nor in the pattern of media extinctions that punctuate traditional media histories. Rather students exploit the resonances and gaps between photography, cinema, animation, software and computational culture. In publishing and documenting, students are expected to critically engage with the platforms and networks in which their work operate or are distributed. </p> -->
<p>Master Lens Based Media is a master-level course within the Willem de Kooning Academie in Rotterdam committed to lens-based image-making as an art and craft.</p>
<p>The program focuses on approaching animation, photography, and the full range of contemporary cinematic forms as a single expanded field. We support new forms of analysis and creative practice that treat images as plastic, open to recombination, manipulation and shaping. Master level researchers explore the myriad ways that lens-based media art might use these new potentials in innovative ways to engage contemporary audiences.</p>
<p>The work of the artists in this graduation show – Ana Buljan, Dorothy Cheung, Lotte Louise de Jong, Shinyoung Kim, Salvador Miranda, Ewan Mitchell, Henrietta Müller, Rosella Nisio, Michael Pelletier, Zhibin Qin – each harnesses technology, visual language, and a vivid creative vision to a wide range of thematics and technologies. Each artist creates work with a strong subjective voice that is the mark of a mature artistic vision.</p>
