A two-day presentation allowing a rare inside look at the current state of research at Eyebeam
Eyebeam is pleased to host Open Studios for its 2009 Senior Fellowships and Winter/Spring Residencies at Eyebeam’s state-of-the-art new media design, digital research, and fabrication studio; showcasing work in the areas of performance, experimental film, wearable technologies, open culture and sustainable art.
EYEBEAM WINTER/SPRING 2009 ARTISTS IN RESIDENCE
Eyebeam’s residents are selected from two yearly open calls of emerging artists, technologists and engineers for a six-month residency, which includes a stipend as well as access to Eyebeam’s facilities, equipment, and opportunities for collaboration and presentation of work. This group of five residents was selected from a group of 144 applicants.
Selection panelists included Eyebeam alum Robert Ransick (Bennington College, VT); Erika Dalya Muhammad (the Fashion Institute of Technology, NYC); Eyebeam senior fellow Michael Mandiberg (College of Staten Island/CUNY, NYC); Paul Amitai (Eyebeam programming coordinator); and Amanda McDonald Crowley, executive director of Eyebeam, with moderation by Roddy Schrock, production coordinator at Eyebeam.
SENIOR FELLOWS 2009
Senior fellows are former fellows who are invited to continue their research at Eyebeam as well as serve as mentors for incoming residents. These individuals are selected in recognition of their exceptional talent and the belief that a sustained research period is critical for the development of new ideas and innovative work—goals central to Eyebeam’s mission. All of the current senior fellows teach at graduate and undergraduate programs throughout New York City, have received numerous awards for their work, and are regularly invited to speak at conferences and take part in exhibitions both in the US and beyond.
