MFA in Performance and Interactive Media Arts at Brooklyn College

The Master of Fine Arts in Performance and Interactive Media Arts (PIMA) provides students with training, theoretical and technical knowledge, and practical experience in the conceptualization and production of collaborative, multidisciplinary artworks. In this intensive two-year program, students work on technology-enabled works performed throughout New York City, study in-depth a common programming language to facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration, make site-specific and community-engaged works, and stretch and challenge themselves as artists in continuous co-authorship, development, and production of performance projects. Students with diverse academic, artistic, professional, and cultural backgrounds enter the program, form a close-knit community, and work in collaborative groups throughout the course of study, with close mentoring by faculty members from the departments of the School of Visual, Media, and Performing Arts, including Art; the Conservatory of Music, Film, Television Radio & Emerging Media, and Theater.
