E-Lab: Call For Submissions
The Centre for Art Tapes is accepting submissions for our 2016-17 Electronic Artist in Residence. The CFAT Electronics Lab is a resource for artists learning and exploration of technology and experimental electronic media. Be it hardware manipulation, hacking, electro-mechanics, coding, or electronic design/fabrication, we emphasize learning in conjunction with artistic and critical analysis.
The Centre For Art Tapes Electronics Lab is looking for an applicant to participate in a three-month electronic arts residency. The selected proposal will incorporate an electronic element and make use of the facilities and supplies on offer at the E-Lab. This residency is an opportunity for an artist to continue their ongoing work in electronics or to develop a project exploring/researching electronic media.
The selected participant will receive a $1,700 honorarium and a $300 fee for conducting an artist presentation or workshop. They will have access to a 24 hour working space in the electronics lab from November 1st to the end of February (CFAT will be closed for 3 weeks in December), free use of some electronic stock provided by the lab, and weekly assistance from the electronics lab technician.
Submissions should include:
- A description of your project (Maximum one page)
- A project budget
- A CV
- Maximum 20 digital images in jpeg format and/or video/audio clips. All clips must be under 5 minutes and sent as a URL
Applications will only be accepted electronically. Please email all materials to tori@cfat.ca. The successful applicant will be informed the first week in November.
Submissions are due on: October 28th, 2016 by 5pm
