About

Welcome to The Center for Collaborative Arts and Media (CCAM), we are Yale’s media laboratory for everyone.

At CCAM, we investigate intersections of art, science, and technology through research, programs, and exhibitions. A unit of Yale College Arts, CCAM guides students, faculty, and collaborators in expanding and exploring all manner of projects.

Located at 149 York Street in New Haven, the 5,000 square foot space boasts state-of-the-art facilities, including a motion capture studio, immersive media research, projection mapping system, creative suites, computerized audio and light systems, video studio, equipment lending library, wide-format printers, open workspace labs, and exhibition gallery. CCAM shares the modernist concrete building (once home to the Yale University Press) with the Yale School of Drama.

Mission

The Center for Collaborative Arts and Media is Yale’s media laboratory for everyone. At CCAM we mix art, science, and technology to produce experimental and creative output. We encourage collaboration across disciplines and provide a space, opportunities, and programming for students, faculty, and staff to engage with and explore new mediums. From painters wanting to try out VR to biomechanical engineers working in our motion capture studio, our open-door policy allows for all types of ideas to enter the space. Our artist run team is committed to providing conceptual and practical feedback for projects and processes at any stage of development.
