Krashna Musika, the student orchestra and choir from DELFT (NL), plays ‘Sogno di Volare’ by Christopher Tin at the Dream Hall of the Delft University of Technology. Droomproject 2023 – Produced by New Media Centre TU Delft Krashna is the student orchestra and choir from Delft. The association showcases a unique combination of technical students and classical music and provides a meeting place for all like-minded with an interest in music. This project is a collaboration with the New Media Centre of the TU Delft and was filmed at the Dream Hall of the TU Delft.

As of January 1, 2024, the Faculty of Mechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineering (3mE) has changed its name to Mechanical Engineering. The NewMedia Centre was asked to produce a short video to promote this change at the front of the faculty building.

Students from Industrial Design Engineering reached out for support in the XR Zone where they created a VR application for their Bachelor End Project (BEP).

To enhance medical education, Dr. Marjon Stijntjes developed a web-based simulation that teaches students to assess the revalidation needs of elderly patients after hospital discharge. Set in a virtual home environment, students gather clues by interacting with everyday objects, simulating real-life clinical judgment. The patient’s condition evolves weekly, training students to recognize change over time. Accessible via browser, the tool has been praised for its intuitive, gamified design and practical relevance — a powerful example of how serious games can transform healthcare training.

How do students discover who they want to become? At TU Delft, the Mechanical Engineering faculty paired with the New Media Centre’s Graphics team to address that question through animated storytelling. By developing eight distinct “Engineer of the Future” personas—each with its own narrative, style, and personality—students could see relatable career paths. Hand-drawn illustrations and concise two-minute videos translated complex concepts into engaging scripts, creating a compelling blended learning experience that inspires and informs.

Do you know how to transform your research idea into a funded project? To demystify the process, the NMC Graphics team at TU Delft designed a clear, step-by-step infographic outlining every phase of grant applications—from finding funding and consulting support to drafting, submitting, and following up. Developed in collaboration with stakeholders, and available in print and web formats, this guide uses color, icons, and layout to guide researchers through institutional workflows and reduce administrative uncertainty.
