AMC is likely one of the first academic units globally explicitly dedicated to the intersection of AI and the arts. Our mission is to be a leading cross-disciplinary center where technology, art, and humanities converge, fostering innovative talents and impactful works that will shape our future. We are proud to leverage HKUST’s strengths in science and engineering, along with its significant investments in high-end computational resources.

 

We have multiple tenure-track and teaching-track faculty openings at all ranks (Professor/Associate Professor/Assistant Professor/Lecturer/Senior Lecturer). We are particularly interested in candidates with an MFA/PhD degree and proven experience in research and teaching within the following focus areas:

• Machine-assisted Art Practice (visual, sound, performing, installation, cinematic arts, etc.);

• Critical Studies on Arts and Machine Creativity (art history, media theory, philosophy of technology, etc.); and/or

• Art Management (managerial, legal, and business topics related to AI arts, NFT, etc.).

 

Preference will be given to those with experience in integrating new technologies, such as generative AI, with the arts.

 

If you know someone who might be a good fit for these positions, I would appreciate it if you could forward this email to them or encourage them to connect with me directly. They can express their interest through a simple Google form (link: https://forms.gle/VzdAXv293x4tNjou6). Should they be shortlisted for an interview, they will be invited to submit a full application via the HKUST recruitment system. Your direct recommendation for strong candidates would also be invaluable.
