Goldsmiths’ Department of Computing and the V&A Digital Programmes team have announced their inaugural Computational Arts Residency.
The three-month residency is open to artists who have a strong interest in producing computational art. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, from performance, visual art and literature to science. What we are interested in seeing is how their background has been combined with their interest in computation.
Awarded to two computational artists, the residency includes:
- three months’ access to state-of-the-art computing facilities at Goldsmiths, University of London
- mentorship from Irini Papadimitriou, Digital Programmes Manager at the V&A
- rich interaction with the academic community at Goldsmiths Computing
- a £500 stipend
Each artist will research and develop new work during Summer 2018, and produce a piece that will feature in the V&A’s Digital Design Weekend in September 2018.
Application deadline: 1 March 2018
Start date: Summer 2018 for 3 months (dates flexible within reason)
The residency is open to computational artists (or artist-duos, but not collectives) who have a strong interest in producing computational art. They should have some technical expertise and will probably be able to code in at least one language which they use in their practice. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, from performance, visual art and literature to science. What we are interested in seeing is how their background has been combined with their interest in computation.
