Overview of class

NUvention: Arts and Entertainment brings together students from across Northwestern schools to work in interdisciplinary teams on the creation of new ventures in the arts and entertainment space. No specific genre, form, or medium will be emphasized; students are encouraged to explore ideas in a wide range of areas, including music, theater, television and the visual arts. They will learn a process of innovation and venture development that can be applied in multiple contexts. Students will be challenged to think about the role of technology in shaping the future of the arts and entertainment industries, and will interact with industry veterans who may provide feedback on their projects.
