From anxieties about AI development to the rapid shifts in atmospheric carbon and temperature, news and media increasingly deliver a foreboding interpretation of the world. Whether it’s the return of the past in the present or conspiracies nested within conspiracies, networks and platforms have become a playground for entertainment and fear. As unreliable narratives spread, and climate and social inequalities expand and endure, an atmosphere of doubt creeps in. As this undercurrent of foreboding permeates across digital platforms, the transmediale x Chile residency welcomes new or ongoing projects that question what kinds of illogical, irrational, and unusable politics and affect emerge?
The two month residency takes place at transmediale studio in Berlin in August and September 2023. Accepted candidates are required to use the residency in its full length during August and September, 2023. During the residency, the projects can be presented in public presentations at transmediale studio in Berlin. Each resident will be provided with a fee of €2,200 and is supported with travel and accommodation costs.
Residents will be selected by a joint jury of Nora O Murchú, artistic director of transmediale, Valentina Montero, curator and researcher, and Nicole L'Huillier, transmediale resident 2022 and transdisciplinary artist, researcher, and musician.
