MIT Comparative Media Studies

The official TechTV video collection of the MIT Comparative Media Studies program.

The CMS program is committed to the art of thinking across media forms, theoretical domains, cultural contexts, and historical periods. Both our graduate and undergraduate programs encourage the bridging of theory and practice, as much through course work as through participation in faculty and independent research projects.
