Art-Science hothouse residency: Tasting the change (Devon, United Kingdom)
In November 2019 CCANW and Science Walden will host an Art-Science hothouse residency, a week of experimentation and conversation about working across disciplines for a very small number of participants. The focus is on how we can respond intelligently to the challenges of the climate emergency through creative projects or practice.
They are looking for established teams who wish to spend some concentrated time together. They will however also consider proposals from teams or couples who have not worked together given a strong enough rationale for the grouping. There are no national restrictions on the makeup of teams. The primary language is English.
The residency begins late afternoon on Saturday November 9, and finishes at 4pm on Thursday November 14, with the public symposium event taking place on Friday November 15 that you would be expected to attend. The theme of this public one-day symposium is ‘Emergency Response Time’.
Application deadline: 8 September 2019
Support: Each team will receive an honorarium of £800 plus room and board and a travel allowance.
