New Tools for School UCI Arts students use technology and spaces to explore the human experience Students at the Claire Trevor School of the Arts explore the human experience through a variety of creative avenues by using skills as classically trained fine artists, but also through emerging technology and media. The school offers a variety of equipment and spaces that utilize new tech and multimedia tools such as the Experimental Media
Performance Lab (xMPL), the motion capture studio, and the Meyer Sound Design Studio, among others. Students from all four departments have access to a range of media that allows them to reshape how art is created and experienced. We asked a few students who are utilizing these tools and spaces to share with us.
