About the Program

The Klang und Realität master's program is housed at the Institute of Music and Media, which brings together performative, compositional, and algorithmic forms of contemporary art. In keeping with that expansive mission, the program combines many approaches of time based art. Over the course of their studies, students will develop positions independently. They learn to reflect their own approach in relation with artistic, academic, political, and scientific contexts and will graduate prepared to shape, advance, and even anticipate developments in the 21st century. The program offers two concentrations: Epistemic Media and Transmedia Forms. The curriculum is structured across 4 semesters with modules that include: Project I (project development, 22 CPs), Foundations I (14 CPs), Laboratory I (project participation, 10 CPs), and Context (electives, 20 CPs) in the first and second semesters; followed by Project II (project implementation, 22 CPs), Foundations II (10 CPs), Laboratory II (project participation, 10 CPs), and the Master's degree examination (12 CPs) in the third and fourth semesters.
