In light of ITP's upcoming move to the Brooklyn campus and the start of our new undergraduate BFA program, IMA (Interactive Media Arts), NYU President Andrew Hamilton came for a visit to see the floor and experience some of the projects that the students are working on.

We were happy to show him the creative mess and serious play that goes on at ITP!

It's a community game in which people manipulate sensors inside a fabricated mouth, teeth and tongue to build original words out of sounds, and assign them to meanings, feelings or situations that don't have words yet.
