What is Creative Technology?

Creative Technology is the interdisciplinary convergence of art, design, and computer science. Practitioners use code, electronics, and algorithms as creative mediums to design interactive and sensory experiences.

“Designing the invisible dialogue between humans, machines, and physical environments.”

Mission & Vision

Mission

To promote creative technology in all its forms across India.

Vision
