Australasian CRC for Interaction Design: PhD Scholarship in Adaptive Media
The Australasian CRC for Interaction Design (ACID) is offering a new doctoral scholarship for
a suitably qualified candidate to undertake research into computational processes for
generative music and graphics. This scholarship is funded by ACID for a period of three
years. The position will be based in the Creative Industries Faculty at the Queensland
University of Technology (QUT) in Brisbane, Australia.
ACID is a leader in the research and design of innovative technologies and digital media that
support new forms of interaction and collaboration.
The successful applicant will work with a team of researchers working on ACID’s Adaptive
Media project. This project investigates new methods for providing computational support for
creative activities through generative algorithmic processes that extend or automate creation
of digital media content.
The successful applicant will suggest a doctoral study that strongly aligns with this project and
will work with Associate Professor Andrew Brown and Research Fellow Andrew Sorensen.
Applicants must also successfully apply for admission to the doctoral project at QUT.
The doctoral scholarship is valued at $20K per annum (tax exempt) and may be renewed,
subject to satisfactory progress.
Applications are invited from both Australian citizens and International Students applying to
study at QUT. Successful applicants are expected to enrol in 2008.

Kelvin Grove, Qld, 4059 (Phone: 07 3337 7821; Fax: 07 3337 7834; Email:
