New Media Intersections is an exploration of overlapping practice. University of Lethbridge Professors Leanne Elias (Principle Investigator, New Media) Janice Rahn (Education), Denton Fredrickson (Art), Dana Cooley (New Media) and John Usher (Management) seek to investigate the intersections between emerging technologies and traditional frameworks of artistic practice. Searching out, interviewing and inviting professionals from various disciplines to engage with students at the University of Lethbridge was at the core of this research. Our goal is carry on a virtual dialogue with these ever-changing disciplines, and add new interviews as we engage with new work in the coming years.
