Talk: \u201cInterdisciplinary Approaches in Artistic Practices\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Interactive media and experimental games increasingly emerge at the intersection of creative practice and technological development.

This talk presents our creative practice and reflects on interdisciplinary approaches and possibilities for artistic projects.<\/p>\n
