Hosted by the Institute Experimental Design and Media Cultures’ Critical Media Lab, the PhD programme offers a community of students & researchers working at the intersection of design, media, art & technology close mentorship and collective engagement with media practices of documenting, hacking, rehearsing and publishing which build the lab’s current threads.
We view research as a process—deeply entangled with the social, political, and technological urgencies of our time. We are committed to setting up a collaborative culture that articulates its means through a collaboration agreement that is continually re-thought and developed.
The programme emphasizes individualized research training, with regular one-to-one and group sessions led by supervisors in both Basel and Linz.
Mentoring is complemented by a structured three-year taught curriculum, including monthly colloquia and a yearly assembly.
In addition, the PhD programme engages in public programming through:
- Collaborations with Brand-New-Life, a diamond open access journal. Find our latest issue here.
- An annual public event. Find our latest conferences here.
Please note that the PhD programme is not funded.
