Well, I do think UCSD is pretty good... There's also UCB, Peabody Conservatory, Princeton, and Dartmouth, all very good.

Hello all,

this is certainly off topic but I thought you would be a good group of people to ask. I am a year away from finishing my BFA and am wondering what to do afterwards. My main career interest is to be an artist/researcher in an academic setting. What graduate schools do people suggest that have good research programs in art/new media research? I would be interested in moving almost anywhere for the right program.

I'm currently looking at MIT MediaLab - Computer Culture, The Art and Technology program at Chalmers University - Sweden, The Studio for creative inquiry at Carnegie Mellon, Hexgram at Concordia - Canada, ZKM, and UCSD.

Anyone have any other suggestions? My research interests center around, data visualization, neural networks, genetic algorithms, virtual life, HCI and mass communication systems. I'm particularly interested in how these areas fit into art production.

Thanks Ben
