Call Out for AIR’s "Live Interactive" Collaboration/Residency –> Transmedia 
 

AIR and free103point9, a 15-year old media arts non-profit operating WGXC 90.7FM, join forces to offer, for the first time, a ten-week residency to support producers developing new collaborative work.

We’re looking for adventurous media-makers, artists, and documentarians interested in teaming up in Spring 2013 to explore/exploit media that spans the broadcast/transmission, digital, and “street” platforms. Our selected team will receive a $10K stipend to work on-site for eight of the ten weeks in upstate New York. Two weeks will be devoted to planning and advance preparation.

Applicants may be involved as collaborative partners already, or may be coming together for the first time. We’ll also accept applications from individuals interested in finding a partner/open to a match-up by AIR.

In addition to the stipend, our Live Interactive Residents will have resources and additional support including:

•    Housing for eight weeks in Acra, NY (near Hudson and Catskill)
•    Live broadcast studios 
•    A research library
•    A dynamic community of media-makers associated with the station

Are you who we’re looking for? This is a great opportunity for those with bold ideas who need a supportive space to experiment with broadcast/transmission media. We want gifted makers who have an appetite for risk, and who are bringing ideas that have potential to expand and broaden our understanding of a converged, multiplatform spectrum.  Among the hundreds of makers who have worked with free103point9 are Gregory Whitehead, Brenda Hutchinson, Anna Friz, and Ann Heppermann and Kara Oehler who, with Jason Cady, created a continent-spanning project called Chorus of Refuge.

Interested producers will be asked to complete an on-line application detailing their experience and their proposed project. The strongest applicants will be those who are recognized for having high standards in work ethics and quality, and able to work both independently and as part of a team. The strongest proposals will put forward ideas that show the most promise of:

1. transcending traditional or familiar uses of media;
2. dissolving the barriers between broadcast, digital and/or street media (including installation work); and
3. extending out in an on-going way, either in a direct way as a “work-in-progress,” or as part of the producers’ continuum of artistic or professional development.

Those applying as a team must select a lead producer/representative.
