Program Overview

Practical Course: AI in Arts

The Practical Course: AI in Arts is a collaborative effort between the Hochschule f³r Fernsehen und Film (HFF) and the Media Informatics department of LMU. This course builds upon the success of the "Immersive Arts" course, where students from both institutions worked together on digital media projects.

Course Description

In this practical course, students will work together with HFF students on their own projects, from the project idea to the finished prototype. The focus is on the interdisciplinary development of AI-based media projects, which can range from documentary and experimental to practical applications. The project idea is developed together in the workshop and implemented in small groups.
