Calendar: Audio Calls
Eyebeam is now accepting applications for Winter 2008 residencies. In addition to our preexistent residency program, this season we're very pleased to announce an additional opportunity for artist support: the inaugural Commission for Resident Artists, underwritten by Dewar's. Details about the commission, which will offer an additional subsidy to two residents a season, are detailed in a separate section below.
The application deadline for the Winter 2008 residency season (which will run from January-June) has been extended to October 1, 2007. All applicants will be informed of their status by November 2007.
Eyebeam residencies support the creative research, production and presentation of initiatives that query art, technology and culture. The residency is a period of concentration and immersion in artistic investigation, daring research or experimental production of visionary expression, applications and projects. Past initiatives have ranged from moving image, sound and physical computing works to technical prototypes, installations and public interventions.
The ideal resident will both contribute to and benefit from the collective environment at Eyebeam, and will embrace the spirit of openness shared across the organization: open source, open content and open distribution.
Residents are encouraged to participate in public events including workshops, demonstrations of research in progress, panel discussions, and on-line releases, in addition to regularly scheduled open studio events. Therefore, we do ask that artists include in their proposal examples of how they might like to contribute to Eyebeam's public programming.
The program term is from January to June with the potential for extension and/or re-application. Residents will be selected from an open call, based on the quality of the work or research being proposed, the availability of the necessary tools and skills to support the work, and in consideration of the overarching research themes and activities of the organization.
Eyebeam's research themes bring together creative practitioners and expert external participants to develop new research leading to possible public outcomes including seminars, public discussion and exhibition.
Research themes for 2008 include (though will not be limited to):
* Energy, Technology and Sustainability
* Urban research, urban interventions and media in public space
Artists and creative technologists interested in these research areas are particularly encouraged to apply for residencies.
Eyebeam Residency
Residencies include:
* $5,000 honorarium
* 24/7 access to Eyebeam's Chelsea facility in New York City, including equipment and technical expertise from Eyebeam staff and Fellows
* The potential for collaborative exchange with other residents and Eyebeam fellows, as well as support from interns
Residents are encouraged to work onsite at Eyebeam for as much of their residency as possible, in order to both contribute to and gain from the collective, collaborative context of the labs.
International applicants are welcome to apply, though Eyebeam will not cover additional travel or accommodation expenses. We are, however, happy to work with selected applicants, to help them to secure funds to cover these expenses. International residents are responsible for securing their own visas for the residency period. International applicants are encouraged to apply now for Summer 2008 residencies.
Up to three residencies will be offered in Winter 2008.
Commission for Resident Artists
Eyebeam is pleased to announce the inaugural Commission for Resident Artists, which is being underwritten by Dewar's.
The Commission for Resident Artists includes:
* $10,000 honorarium
* Additional stipend for travel, accommodation, and equipment expenses
* 24/7 access to Eyebeam's Chelsea facility in New York City, including equipment and technical expertise from Eyebeam staff and fellows
* The potential for collaborative exchange with other residents as well as support from interns
In exchange, the commissioned resident artists are asked to:
* Commit to presentation of the process of creating the commission through a website and regular blog posts
* Commit to presentation of the finished commissioned work at the end of the residency
Two commissions will be awarded in Winter 2008: one to a foreign artist and one to an American artist. We are particularly interested in commissions which focus on open source outcomes.
In order to be considered for this opportunity, you must:
* Be at least 25 years old
* State your interest in being considered for the commission in the standard online residency application
Additionally, you must send a letter of nomination from a mentor, employer, collaborator or curator to residencyinfo AT eyebeam DOT org by the October 1, 2007, 2007 application deadline.
