Inter Arts Center (IAC) is an infrastructure for artistic research and research in music education, research education, as well as cross-disciplinary art and research. As part of the Faculty of Fine and Performing Arts at Lund University, IAC operates in close dialogue with the three academies Malmö Art Academy, Malmö Academy of Music, and Malmö Theatre Academy. IAC facilitates opportunities for collaboration and exchange between faculty researchers, other university researchers, external academic and artistic partners, as well as society at large.

As the research infrastructure at the Faculty of Fine and Performing Arts, IAC facilitates research activities in artistic practices and cross-disciplinary explorations in the arts. Over the years, a number of recurring research themes have been developed at IAC. All themes aim to either complement or strengthen the competences and facilities that exist at the three academies at the Faculty of Fine and Performing Arts: • Creative technologies (virtual reality, augmented reality, spatial sound) • Sound art, electronic music, and live electronics • Contemporary dramaturgy and postdramatic theatre • Instrumental and vocal experimentation • Arts and sciences IAC is open for both internal and external researchers and artists.
