Together with our partners in European Digital Deal — a project co-funded by Creative Europe — we’ve launched an open call for 12 artist residencies exploring the deep entanglement between new technologies and democracy.
Artists are called on to investigate a range of topics, from the notion of truth in the information age shaped by algorithms, biases in AI, techno-anxiety, the digital divides arising as a result of digitalisation and ways to counteract them to new forms of surveillance, intelligence, living, citizenship or work.
The residency hosted by GLUON, Artificial Empathy, questions and addresses the desirability and value of tools of control in the city of Brussels.
The selected artists will receive a 25.000 EUR grant to complete their project, mentorship through an incubation programme, and the chance to show their work at Ars Electronica Festival, Onassis Cultural Center in Greece, and Laboral among many other locations.
