The Electronic & Digital Art Unit (EDAU) University of Central Lancashire, Preston, England.

EDAU was a specialist research unit established in 2004 by Chris Meigh-Andrews in the School of Art, Deign & Performance at the University of Central Lancashire.

The Electronic and Digital Art Unit was involved in projects related to electronic & digital art including practice-based MA, MPhil and PhD research (fine art practice) into the historical context of video art and new media practice.

EDAU closed in August 2012 on Prof Meigh-Andrews’ retirement from teaching, and until recently the study collection was maintained and viewing of videotapes was available for research by prior appointment. In March 2019, the collection was transferred to the Faculty of Media & Knowledge Sciences at the University of Malta in Valletta, where it will be housed and maintained, and once it has been catalogued and restored will be made accessible again for scholarly research.
