Andrew F. Scott joins UT Dallas Arts and Tech roster

scott-andrew-400-2014-12Whether by studying the intersections of medicine and technology or by creating art that fuses the digital and analog, new faculty who have joined UT Dallas’ School of Arts and Humanities this fall add to the breadth of expertise housed in the Edith O’Donnell Arts and Technology Building.

Seven tenure or tenure-track faculty members are among the new additions to the Arts and Technology (ATEC) and Emerging Media and Communication (EMAC) programs.

“Building an adventurous and groundbreaking academic program like EMAC can be a daunting task. We are fortunate to have attracted three talented and committed scholars, each of whom complements the program in a different way, to UT Dallas. I am confident that EMAC — guided by our returning, new and future faculty members — will become truly a Tier One academic jewel,” said Dr. Dennis M. Kratz, dean of the school and the Ignacy and Celina Rockover Professor of Humanities.

Andrew F. Scott is one of the newest members of the staff joining as an associate professor of arts and technology. He joins UT Dallas following serving as a Professor of sculpture, coordinator of sculpture at the Savannah College of Art and Design.

Scott’s artwork serves as a bridge though which he can reconcile and communicate collective cultural ideals; his artwork and teaching combine digital fabrication processes and traditional fine arts practices.

“I hope to build on the strong foundations established at ATEC by providing students with an opportunity to explore the relationship between electronic media and contemporary artistic practice. In my own work, I am excited about the influence that working in a major research environment will have on my artistic practice,” Scott shared.
