> The Netherlands Media Art Institute (NIMk) is pleased to announce  
> an open call for the summer and autumn 2008 period of its Artist in  
> Residence (AiR) programme.
> The AiR programme at the Netherlands Media Art Institute aims to
> support the exploration and development of new work in
> digital/interactive/network media and technology based arts practice.
> The residency provides time and resources to artists in a supportive
> environment to facilitate the creation of new work. We encourage a
> cross-disciplinary, hybrid and experimental approach. This is a
> practice based residency designed to enable the development and/or
> completion of a new work. Preferably the production is based on open
> source software.
>
> The overall topic for the 2008 exhibition period at the NIMk is
> 'Democracy'. In the light of this we particularly encourage proposals
> tackling societal issues and supporting the idea of active
> participation, free speech and debate in democratic society.
>
> Please note that this focus is not obligatory and that other  
> proposals are welcome, too.
>
> The Netherlands Media Art Institute offers an open environment with
> technical assistance and an active advisory board which will give
> feedback and support in technical, conceptual and presentation issues.
> There is access to studio and exhibition equipment, technical  
> support from the Institute's staff and production help from  
> interns. The technical staff is specialized and has good contacts  
> with programmers of the following software, a.o.: PD/PDP, Blender,  
> Dynebolic, Linux. We expect the artist to have knowledge and  
> insight in the technical realisation of the concept.
>
> The Netherlands Media Art Institute provides travel costs and a fee  
> that basically covers living expenses in Amsterdam. It doesn’t  
> provide accommodation, but we are willing to help the search. NIMk  
> supports the production of the artwork through the provision of  
> hardware and software.
>
> It is integral to the mission of the AiR program that artists
> participate in presenting their work in a public form appropriate to
> their project. This can include gallery installations, demonstrations
> of research in progress, panel discussions, on-line projects, or
> multimedia performances, in addition to open studio events and
> workshops. For this reason we ask that artists include in their
> proposal possible examples of how they might like to present their  
> work
> publicly.
>
> We prefer applications via the NIMk website, using the application  
> form. See http://www.montevideo.nl/nl/nieuws/detailhome.php?
