I’m writing to ask for your help identifying digital media artists who might be good candidates for a full-time tenure track position in Stanford’s Department of Art & Art History. We are running a search for an Assistant Professor of Digital Media, with an appointment to begin in September 2024.
The job posting on Stanford’s website includes further details, salary information, and application instructions. Applications are due August 31.
We are looking for an artist whose work actively and critically addresses contemporary issues, with attention to how these are engaged with technological systems (algorithmic and computational processes, data gathering, networks, etc.). Areas of media emphasis might include socially engaged media and making practices, generative art, moving imagery, virtual and augmented reality, installation art, or performance. We especially welcome applicants with experimental and hybrid practices that create productive connections between emerging and traditional disciplines.
