Made possible by funding from the Kelly Grant, the New Media Lab aims to get students thinking creatively about modern computing strategies
and help them pursue their own project ideas and research. The lab consists of
many interesting components and devices available freely for students who can
think of good uses for them (a full inventory can be found below).
The New Media Lab is about more than just making new
technology available to students, it’s about encouraging new and unusual ideas
and creative thought processes. Throughout the year, New Media
Lab students will be holding workshops to introduce students to new technology and
get them excited about making
things themselves.
