developed its suite of courses in the multimedia and media arts subject area at
its locations on Huddersfield Campus and at University Centre Oldham. This
includes the recently introduced Game Art course at UCO and planned developments
at Honours level in this area at Huddersfield, and the School now requires a new
full-time Senior lecturer to work with existing staff and researchers of the
Digital Research Unit in developing this area. Game Art at Huddersfield includes
a broad spectrum of creative and cultural practices including game interfaces,
narrative for games, graphics for games, character design, game worlds, the
creative appropriation of games including game modification, machinima,
sonichima, games as art and serious games, as well as the design of computer
games for entertainment. You will be expected to deliver and support
existing staff at UCO and at Huddersfield as well as contributing to the
development of the subject area as a whole.<BR><BR>You will have a broad
understanding of the cultures of games design in both commercial design as well
as contemporary art practice and cultural contexts. You will contribute to
design studio based teaching and lectures in games culture. A degree or
recognised experience of equivalent standing in an art and design discipline is
essential and you will ideally have an art school education, with substantial
experience of working in a games related field in the creative or cultural
industries sectors.<BR><BR>For an informal discussion about this post please
