The Center for Multimedia Arts (CMA) applies design thinking and media production to social and organizational transformation initiatives—strengthening insight, informing decisions, and generating actions that improve circumstances for communities and individuals.
|
|
The CMA’s work fits within the emerging field of Transformation Design. The CMA collaborates with the full spectrum of stakeholders to transform and innovate systems, services, organizations, and policies, developing tools and processes that manifest the collective capacity to make informed and equitable decisions. The intent of these decisions, and the transformations and innovations they engender, is to enhance communal and individual quality-of-life. |
The CMA is a community-engaged research and entrepreneurial resource of the University of Memphis College of Communication and Fine Arts and a partner in the FedEx Institute of Technology, the University’s campus showcase for applied research in technology development. The Center’s location within an urban, research university promotes three priorities: exploratory and experimental research, student mentoring and educational experiences, and the application of our expertise through professional practice. Combined, these three emphases define the CMA's scope of work. |
