Creative computing

From HandWiki
Short description: Computer science applied to the arts

Creative computing covers the interdisciplinary area at the cross-over of the creative arts and computing. Issues of creativity include knowledge discovery, for example.[1]

Overview

The International Journal of Creative Computing describes creative computing as follows:[2]

Creative computing refers to a meta-technology to coalesce knowledge in computing and other disciplines. People use computers as aids to creativity and creative-computing topics may reshape the world as we know it. Applications are seen in arts, entertainment/games, mobile applications, multimedia, product/web design and other interactive systems.

Creative computing is interdisciplinary in nature and topics relating to it include applications, development method, evaluation, modeling, philosophy, principles, support environment, and theory.[2]

The term "creative computing" is used both in the United Kingdom and the United States (e.g., at Harvard University and MIT).[3][4]

Degree programmes

A number of university degree (Bachelor's degree) programmes in Creative Computing exist, for example at:

Master's degree programmes:

  • City University of Hong Kong, the programme is named as Master of Arts in Creative Media (MACM)[23]
  • Hong Kong Polytechnic University, the programme is named as Multimedia & Entertainment Technology (MSc)[24]
  • The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, the programme is named as Master of Philosophy and Doctor of Philosophy Programs in Computational Media and Arts[25]
  • Sogang University, (Seoul), the programme is offered by Department of Art & Technology[26]
