The DARTS research group carries out research on the intersections between art, design, technoscience and society, taking a three-pronged approach: practical, theoretical and historical. With a focus on the application of the information and communication technologies (ICT) on artistic and design training and production, the group engages with a fertile interdisciplinary context that it keeps interconnected, maintaining all its richness and complexity. Accordingly, it takes on part of the epistemological and methodological challenges associated with the cross-disciplinary space that it contributes to articulating, together with the arts knowledge and experience community.
This UOC research group is part of the SGR research group "Grup de recerca en pensament, arts i tecnologies”, under reference "2021 SGR 00291".
