LEMUR annouces ReSIDeNt
Major new residency and performance/installation series
Open call for submissions
In January 2008, LEMUR inaugurated ReSiDeNt, a unique new creator-in-residence program, hosted at LEMUR's Brooklyn space in Park Slope. Each month, we will award three artists a month-long residency at LEMUR, enabling them to create a work utilizing LEMUR's resources, including robotic musical instruments, MIDI audio/video controllers, video projection and tracking system and more. Each group of residencies will culminate in a public show at LEMUR at the end of the month.Artists from all performing and installation disciplines are encouraged to apply, including musicians, composers, dancers, choreographers, video artists, interactive installation artists, performance artists, multimedia artists and others.
LEMUR's staff will provide technical support to residents for learning and utilizing our resources. For early residencies, we will give preference to artists with a reasonable degree of technical skill with computer art. As the year progresses, we will be able to give a higher level of technical support, possibly including programming, electronic design and more.
Deadlines are rolling, allowing artists to submit applications to be considered for future residencies throughout the year. The deadline to apply for the following month's residencies is the 15th of the current month. Announcement of residency awards are made shortly thereafter.
The application process is outlined in the Applying link (click at left).
