About Us

The New Media Institute of Westchester was founded in 2008. The original mission was to support the local community by providing design and implementation capabilities, undertaking New Media research, and sponsoring educational conferences. Since that time client demands and requirements have created a change in the mission, and a new paradigm has evolved.

Today our guiding ethos is to find ways to combine the technology of new media with traditional craftsmanship and design applications. We are motivated by the synergy that comes when these two seemingly divergent realms of creativity come together to take the form of a promotional or sales incentive piece, internet content, a video wall, or anything else that can be imagined.
