The Bridge
A creative lab for Physical-Meta Production, based in the heart of Frenchay Campus.
About
The new state of the art space, worth £3.1 million, for interdisciplinary, practice-based, design-led creative research will drive adoption of emerging technologies in the arts and humanities to stimulate novel forms of creative expression and production.
The new studio is designed to break down the barriers between the technology enabling the creative industries and the artistic processes of content production. The space will deliver future-facing research that keeps pace with today’s rapidly changing technologies, whilst considering aesthetic, cultural and ethical implications. The Bridge will be a collision space for researchers from any discipline to work together on the research for tomorrow.
The Bridge will act as a beacon for the West of England and wider regions, seeking novel applications of technology to enhance arts and humanities research, whilst supporting the UK’s creative and cultural economy.
