| Description |
The Australian Network for Art & Technology (ANAT) is calling for
proposals from media artists and science organisations to take part in
the 2008 Synapse Residency program, supporting intensive partnerships
between Australian media artists and science and research organisations
in Australia and beyond.
The residencies are available to Australian artists with experience in
media arts practice and an interest in science. Artists from all
technologically mediated disciplines are welcome to apply. In order to
encourage early relationship-building and to ensure the best fit
between artist and host organisation, a joint application must be
submitted. It is the responsibility of either partner to establish
contact with the other and to determine the best possible collaboration
prior to application. Those with existing relationships are strongly
encouraged to apply.
Residencies of 12 or 16 weeks’ duration (depending on whether the host
organisation is based in Australia or elsewhere) will be supported.
Participating artists will be paid a weekly fee, as well as
accommodation and living away allowances and travel to the destination
of the residency if required. |
