CALL: NYU ITP x Eyebeam Residency
I wanted to share about our organization and thought you and the department would be interested in our work that intersects technology, art, politics, and new media. I want to personally forward along Eyebeam’s 2018 Residency Open Call: Access. I thought this residency program would be something you, your students, and your network would be interested in, so we’d love if you could share about our Open Call through your media platforms.
You can find more information by visiting the Open Call or viewing the sharable message below.

About
The Eyebeam Residency is a prestigious award for artists engaged with technology and technologists working in the arts. Residents work at Eyebeam’s shared studio space in Brooklyn for one year on experimental, interdisciplinary projects with a goal towards invention and impact. Residents receive a generous financial stipend as well as access to top-notch facilities and a dynamic far-reaching community. Work generated by artists during their residency—whether art, research, code, or machines—are to be made open source and accessible to the public through means like teaching tools, events, and documentation.
Open Call: Access
In the context of our current political discourse, rife with language of exclusion and intolerance, the need for artists to be central to the invention and design of our shared future is urgent. Following on the past two years of Eyebeam Open Calls, focused first on Power, then on Trust, this year’s theme is Access. Eyebeam seeks applications that consider how art and technology can challenge dominant notions of access and how together we can shape a more equitable future. Read the full Open Call here.
