Each edition operationalises the findings of a regional part icipatory assembly into thematic tracks\; the Delhi edition\, hosted by Kh oj International Artists' Association\, works from Mozilla's assemblies wi th G5A in Delhi and Mumbai and runs on two tracks. RETAINING CULTURAL AUTH ORITY asks what happens when oral\, embodied or community-held knowledge i s converted into datasets and machine-readable forms\, which cultural mate rials become visible to AI systems and which do not\, and how communities can retain authority over what is digitised\, interpreted\, reused or deli berately kept private. REMEMBERING AND THINKING WITH MACHINES asks where t hought resides when people think with machines\, at what stage human judgm ent enters the system\, and what cultural or professional knowledge is los t when judgment is standardised through automation. Proposals may respond to one or both tracks and can take many forms\, but must critically counte r the questions the tracks raise rather than simply illustrate them. WHAT RESIDENTS DO: prototype an artifact\, installation\, system\, artwork or t ool for public exhibition\; take part in listening\, reading\, workshops a nd facilitated critique\, testing ideas with peers and community members\; write a 750-word report on the project's development and insights for the Counterstructures report and online archive\; and present the work public ly.

The artistic lab at its heart is an open toolbox for artists connecting to the traditional outside exoti cisation\, cultural essentialism and uneven power dynamics. THEME\, AT THE EXTREME: this edition invites artists and practice-based researchers whos e work examines the ethical\, aesthetic and political implications of trad itions entangled with extremity: intensity\, transgression\, transformatio n\, marginality\, outsiderness\, endurance\, conflict and excess. The call explicitly looks past the usual noise\, violence and loud-popular-music t ropes and past masculine codings of the extreme\, toward current queer and feminist reframings\, treating extremity as a relational condition\, chos en or imposed\, produced between majoritarian centres and their minoritari an outsides. Guiding questions include what it means to follow a tradition to its extreme consequences\, who is allowed to push tradition to its lim its and whose practices get framed as inauthentic or dangerous\, what it m eans to practise tradition under war\, displacement\, repression or ecolog ical crisis\, and how traditions might offer ways of inhabiting extreme ti mes. Preference goes to work engaging technological\, bodily\, aesthetic a nd theoretical forms at that intersection\, especially in unexpected or ra rely recognised ways. WHAT HAPPENS: theory and practice workshops from the co-hosts with individual and group exercises\, closed 15 to 20 minute ora l presentations by each participant\, a solo public performance or present ation (15 to 20 minutes) at a free-entry event\, inputs from specialists s uch as artists\, researchers and technologists\, guided individual and gro up sonic improvisations\, field trips and site visits\, and feedback sessi ons with the co-hosts and curators. AFTERWARDS: participants may propose n ew artistic work or research\, solo or in collaborations formed at the lab \, to the artistic team\; selected works are shortlisted\, and up to two a re commissioned and presented at CTM in January/February 2028. ELIGIBILITY : an existing practice tied to (re)connecting with traditional ideas and s ounds through a contemporary lens and how that overlaps with the extreme\, plus clear ideas or questions about the next step you want to take. Appro aches may be technological\, instrument-focused\, compositional\, aestheti c\, research-oriented or otherwise. Working knowledge of English is recomm ended\, and any concerns about that can be flagged in the form. Up to six participants are selected by co-hosts Karina Utomo (extreme metal vocalist \, composer and collaborative artist) and Luigi Monteanni (sound researche r and ethnomusicologist completing a PhD at SOAS on extreme metal in Bandu ng). The lab is a time-intensive full-day commitment and participants must agree to give the short public performance. APPLY through the form with a portfolio link (PDF\, max 10 pages\, public access\, works from the last five years\, text kept minimal) and a link to a specific audio track or se ction (max five minutes) that best represents your current practice.

THEME: 'Interstices: Resea rch (in) the gaps'. An interstice is the small space between objects set c losely together\, the cords in a rope or the atoms in a crystal lattice: a n emptiness produced by the structure it belongs to\, and without which th at structure could not be what it is. In crystallography\, interstitial si tes are the spaces a lattice and its basis generate but do not fill\, and interstitial diffusion\, the movement of small atoms through the gaps of a host lattice\, is the mechanism by which materials transform. The call as ks what the equivalent sites are in social\, cultural and computational st ructures: where are the gaps these combinations generate but do not fill\, what moves through them\, and do they carry transformative power? It work s through Yancey Strickler's dark forest theory of the internet (the withd rawal of meaningful exchange from the open\, surveilled\, indexed web into private channels)\, the Dark Forest Collective's anthology and its 'cozyw eb' of small sheltered spaces\, dark nets\, miniverses and moving castles as interstitial spaces produced by and defined against the dominant web\, and Bogna Konior's extension of the dark forest metaphor to the opacity of AI systems\, where silence is refusal rather than absence and the forest is increasingly inhabited by other-than-human intelligences that opt out o f engagement with people. Where big tech pursues efficiency through the au tomation of human perception\, cognition\, identification and aesthetics\, artists and researchers explore the non/more-than-human\, glitchy\, noisy \, machinic\, datafied and dark to build new expression and critique of da ta-ism and what is marketed as artificial intelligence\, including the dan gers and potentials inside badly curated data models\, between polluting d ata centres\, and in skeuomorphic interfaces. WHAT THEY WANT: proposals fr om artists\, researchers and practitioners for work that occupies and move s through gaps that are social as well as structural\, ontological and mat erial. The gaps are physical too: the heat of data centres and their thirs t for water\, latency in the cables\, unindexed nodes. The call invites sp eculations\, practical interventions and inferences that fill the gaps and expand the diversity of possible communications and communities that can inhabit dark forests\, including those built on\, against and beneath the infrastructures underlying them\, and welcomes work on the (dis-)continuou s histories of technological exploration of computational infrastructures over the last 30 years or longer\, and on how current artistic\, theoretic al and technical explorations repeat or break from them. WHO: PhD candidat es and early-career researchers\, with submissions welcome from researcher s inside and outside the academy\, including artists\, designers and curat ors. PARTICIPANT EXPECTATIONS: participants write a paper and present it a t the workshop\, and on the basis of that peer review shorten the research into a newspaper-length article for distribution at the transmediale fest ival.

The brief is not a commercial: it asks for a complete\, emotionally resonant human story in which the outside acts as a catalyst for change\, exploring how stepping outside is an antidote to increasingly screen-locke d\, indoor lives. Stories should reflect transformation (a moment of reset \, reconnection or personal shift)\, connection (belonging\, community\, r enewed relationship) and human truth (an observed\, emotionally grounded m oment). The strongest entries show what changed in a person because they w ent outside\, emotionally\, physically\, mentally\, creatively\, spiritual ly or psychologically\, rather than a final achievement. Selected filmmake rs enter a three-day online intensive in September on collaborating with a brand\, then receive USD 20\,000 to produce and deliver their greenlit co ncept\, cutdowns (:06\, :15\, :30) and stills between October and December \, with scheduled check-ins. One participant also receives a covered hotel stay to join the team at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2027. APPL ICATION: one entry per person\; all submitted materials must be created by the submitter\; all answers and materials must be in English or carry Eng lish subtitles. The core submission is a written response of up to 500 wor ds on how you would approach the brief. CRITICAL GUIDELINES: design for ve rtical with a strong hook in the first five seconds\; prioritise human\, o bservational storytelling over polished commercial aesthetics\; feature re al people and authentic moments\; treat the outside as context rather than the hero\; favour everyday\, intimate moments over epic outcomes\; avoid overt brand narration\; no competitor products (Merrell product is provide d but must not be the focus)\; no AI-generated content in consumer-facing materials.

THEME: 'The Origins of Future Technologies: Towards communities of digital self-determination'. The call starts from the premise that digital future s do not appear from nowhere but are built through land\, labour\, capital \, infrastructure\, law\, public money\, political choices and social stru ggle\, and asks where technologies come from\, who gets to shape them\, an d what conditions make digital self-determination possible. It situates th is against the EU's 2026 Tech Sovereignty Package (semiconductors\, artifi cial intelligence\, cloud infrastructure and data centres) and the wider d eregulatory agenda including the Digital Omnibus\, the AI Omnibus and refo rms affecting data protection\, privacy\, labour and environmental safegua rds\, asking whose version of sovereignty is actually being discussed. TOP IC AREAS: (1) Material conditions in the production of technologies\, cove ring the natural resources needed across the supply chain (critical compon ents such as semiconductors\, water for data centres) and how GDPR\, ePriv acy and AI Act safeguards shape the material conditions of AI from data ex traction and biometric processing through to data centres\, labour and pub lic infrastructure\; labour conditions\, including who mines critical mate rials\, union-busting across the tech supply chain\, and coalitions betwee n tech workers\, unions\, migrant justice groups\, climate movements and d igital rights organisations\; and capital\, meaning the venture capital fo rces driving the current AI hype and consolidating through defence\, secur ity and militarisation. (2) Political vision in the use of technologies\, covering military use and how militarisation and securitisation shape the EU deregulation debate\, and the political ideologies driving technology d evelopment\, including what digital self-determination means for communiti es facing racialised discrimination\, surveillance\, occupation\, border v iolence\, workplace control or environmental harm. (3) Moving technologies forward through communities\, covering community innovation for digital s elf-determination (distributed and self-hosted data storage\, AI built by and for community needs\, community-led\, public or cooperative digital in frastructure)\; law\, deregulation and rights (resisting the Digital Omnib us and specifically the Data Omnibus\, defending GDPR and ePrivacy safegua rds\, protecting access\, transparency and automated decision-making right s\, enforcing existing digital laws\, supporting collective litigation\, a nd challenging the framing of rights as obstacles to EU competitiveness)\; and building power by connecting grassroots movements across tech worker organising\, labour\, migrant\, LGBTQIA+\, climate\, economic justice and landback movements. FORMATS: interactive workshops are particularly encour aged\, meaning small-group work\, peer exchange and collaboration across s ectors\, coalitions and disciplines\, moving from talk to strategic action \; panel discussions are also welcome\, especially those centring diverse voices and grounded lived experience with room for meaningful audience eng agement. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: state a clear objective for the session an d what a good outcome would be\; make it as interactive as possible\; supp ort a diversity of voices and multiple perspectives\; average session leng th is 50 minutes\; propose the format that actually suits the idea rather than forcing a panel into a workshop or vice versa. For workshops\, make t he objectives\, structure and facilitation clear and have participants wor k together in small groups towards a specific goal\; the organisers provid e additional guidance\, support and feedback for workshops.

The applicant must be a Netherlands-registere d legal entity running a venue or festival and carrying artistic and finan cial responsibility for its own programme\, so individuals and sole trader s cannot apply. Grants are calculated from travel and transport costs of t he incoming artists\, at a maximum of EUR 25\,000 per production and EUR 7 5\,000 per applicant across several productions. The core test is that the foreign work is rarely or never seen in the Netherlands and substantially enriches the existing Dutch offer\, which favours experimental\, non-cano nical and cross-disciplinary programming over mainstream touring. Experime ntal music and sound-art programming is not excluded\; the selection crite rion is rarity and added value\, not genre. Applications go through the Mi jn Fonds portal and there is no fee. Four rounds run each year. TIMING: be cause the scheme competes against a shared EUR 267\,500 per-round pot and assessment takes several weeks after the deadline\, organisers should appl y at least one full round ahead of the performance date and must not have the activity already underway. Success rate in 2025 was 60 percent of 33 a pplications.\n\nOrganisation: Fonds Podiumkunsten (Performing Arts Fund NL )\nLocation: Activity must take place in the Netherlands. Applicants from Aruba\, Bonaire\, Curacao\, Sint Maarten\, Saba and Sint Eustatius are als o in scope. No city or region restriction.\nAward: Maximum EUR 25\,000 per production\, capped at EUR 75\,000 for an applicant presenting multiple p roductions. Calculated on travel and transport costs of the foreign artist s and their production only. EUR 267\,500 available per round shared acros s this scheme and two sibling internationalisation schemes.

Ther e are two annual deadlines: 1 October at 14:00 CEST for projects starting the following year with decisions by year-end\, and 1 March for projects s tarting in July or later with decisions by end of June. Grant sizes are no t published\, and the Foundation aims funding at artistic rather than over head costs. Only the organising institution may apply and only legal entit ies qualify: cultural institutions\, orchestra managers\, festival organis ers and ensembles. Self-applications and applications from individuals are explicitly refused. VOLUME LIMITS are strict and worth planning around: e ach institution may submit one application per deadline\, may be supported for only one project per year\, and may be supported for a maximum of thr ee projects across three consecutive years.\n\nOrganisation: Ernst von Sie mens Musikstiftung\nLocation: International\, no stated country restrictio n on the organising institution\, though the Foundation is Swiss and Germa n in orientation and administration.\nAward: No published minimum or maxim um. Primarily covers artistic costs\, not overheads. The Foundation explic itly will not fully fund a project\, and requires at least one other insti tution to participate financially at a level similar to the amount request ed\, functioning as a de facto 1:1 match. No application fee.\nDuration: P roject-based.

T HEME: Agentworld is a research initiative on the medium-term future of hyb rid human-AI societies\, framed not around tools for agentic task completi on but around what the brief calls 'the human perplexity of deep agentic d iffusion'. It treats human societies as the evolutionary niches into which new artificial species must adapt\, where the constraints of agentic inte gration are qualitative and open-ended (psychological\, philosophical\, li nguistic\, symbolic\, existential) rather than utility functions to be sol ved. The framing describes a 'parasociety' of densely reticulated social g raphs in which agent-to-agent communication constitutes most socially sign ificant interaction\, humans and agents anthropomorphise each other by inh eritance rather than necessity\, and the two overlapping societies act as mutual evolutionary niches. The disciplinary posture proposed is 'a preemp tive anthropology of open-world centaur societies': building the vocabular y\, scenarios and conceptual armature for an emergent sociality while it i s still forming\, rather than describing it after the fact. WHAT THEY WANT : theoretical essays and technical papers that engage the Agentworld theme s directly and explain how the contribution adds to the special issue's co re questions. Philosophical\, theoretical\, technical\, design-led and pro duct-oriented research are all in scope. The call explicitly favours work that exceeds conventional academic journal formats\, including contributio ns combining philosophical argument\, technical analysis\, design research \, diagrams\, software\, infrastructure proposals\, visual media or web-na tive formats. Contributors may optionally propose still images\, diagrams\ , video\, web-based or interactive components\, and should say whether the y have the design\, development or production capacity to realise them\; t hese elements are not required.

T he Fund's strategy is to build the power of the public interest community to shape the direction of AI in Europe\; narratives are central to creatin g the conditions for a greater say over how AI is adopted and used. THREE THEMES where research shows the public already feels strongly: (1) DATA CE NTRES: as the EU aims to triple data centre numbers in the next five to se ven years\, pollution\, energy prices and compromised grid access have mob ilised communities across the political spectrum\; proposals should explor e narrative questions that move communities beyond resistance towards enga gement in shaping data centre expansion. (2) AI AND JOBS: 57% of the publi c in a recent study expressed concern about how AI will change employment\ , more pronounced among lower-income people\, and the concern is not only displacement but the quality and nature of work\, autonomy and dignity\; p roposals should move the debate from generalised anxiety into a mobilising issue that shapes the future of work. (3) YOUNG PEOPLE: beyond the stride nt social media ban debate\, young people encounter AI in education\, frie ndships and future careers\, and their wider views are rarely heard\; prop osals should build narratives that help young people shape the technologie s that will influence their lives. LEARNING PROGRAMME: grantees join a com munity of practice\, sharing experiences across issues and places\, suppor ting each other through delivery and reflecting on which strategies and st ories have most salience\, with findings feeding back to the Fund and othe r funders. ABOUT THE FUNDER: the European AI & Society Fund is a pooled fu nd with 18 funding partners that mobilises a public interest community in Europe to fight for AI that serves people\, society and planet\; it takes no EU\, government or Big Tech money.

It publishes in March/April 2027\, digital and print\, under CC BY-S A 4.0. The current open call is to propose a recipe by the end of August 2 026 and join as a launch contributor. WHAT THEY WANT: tried-and-tested gro up exercises you have actually run with people in teaching or workshops\, specifically in the context of film\, audiovisual work\, time-based media and storytelling. Hands-on or analog\, 15 minutes or a full day\, beginner or advanced\; the one hard requirement is that another educator can read your recipe and run it themselves. What that might look like: hands-on exp eriments with specific AI tools (image generators\, chatbots\, code assist ants\, video models)\; analog activities that reveal computational logic t hrough embodied practice\; critical readings\, watchings or listenings wit h structured discussion\; provocations\, games or role-plays that get at h ow AI sees\, thinks or makes\; and exercises that help people work out how they want to relate to AI in their own practice. WHAT MAKES A GOOD RECIPE : it helps a room of people think together and trusts the room to be smart given the right container\; it emerges from real practice rather than an untested idea\; it is specific about what participants do\, step by step\, so a stranger could pick it up and adapt it to their group\, time\, tools or context\; it has at least one designed social moment where the thinkin g happens between people rather than privately\; it is about something lar ger than technique (how a machine sees an image\, where your values bump u p against what the tools want from you\, what a film's rhythm looks like l aid out in space instead of time)\; it takes a position without telling pe ople what to think\; and it points beyond itself with references\, reading and reference projects. Published example recipes include Image Forgery: Archival Mimesis with AI (Artefacto)\, Machine Ways of Seeing (Nadia Piet) \, AI Film Now: A Close Watching Exercise (Nadia Piet) and Outside the Tim eline: Spatial Grid + Visual Clustering (Artefacto)\, alongside a root rec ipe template. WHAT LAUNCH CONTRIBUTORS GET: your recipe in the first editi on\, print and online\, credited to you\; a print copy when it lands and a n invite to the launch event in Amsterdam in spring 2027\; support turning your exercise into a recipe\, via Recipe Press (their LLM helper)\, the c ook-along\, or directly with the team\; and a need-based fee of EUR 150 pe r recipe for freelance and independent practitioners\, which you request i n the proposal form.

Works should respond to the CTM 2027 theme 'Pr ocess...ing'\, with active listening informing the proposals. Applications should describe how the work could be developed for two complementary out puts: a LIVE EVENT at CTM 2027 and a RADIO BROADCAST on Deutschlandfunk Ku ltur and Oe1/ORF.

For radio/podcast\, proposals should consider the individual listeni ng experience (a recording of the performance is not sufficient)\; the bro adcast is a 40-55 minute piece aired in a late-night slot to a largely Ger man-speaking\, non-specialist audience. Works premiere at CTM 2027 (22-31 January 2027\, Berlin)\, are broadcast in Deutschlandfunk Kultur's Klangku nst programme in Spring 2027\, and presented via ORF (Oe1 Zeit-Ton or Blau e Stunde / Kunstradio) and/or ORF musikprotokoll im steirischen herbst in Graz (Autumn 2027)\, then available for streaming for at least one year.

The current round\, the AI and Finance Residents Pro gram\, is run in partnership with Data & Society and asks for bold ideas o n how to shape\, redirect\, interrupt or make more visible and contestable the flows of capital into generative AI. Framing: breakneck investment in generative AI technology and infrastructure is distorting the stock marke t\, profit measures\, bond issuance\, the pace and composition of growth\, job creation and trade policy\, with seven tech companies accounting for more than a third of S&P 500 market capitalisation and complex\, sometimes circular financial arrangements obscuring risk.

THE PREMISE: Transfyr argues science is missing an observability layer. Lab work is ful l of tacit decisions\, failed attempts\, operator judgment\, noisy instrum ents and context that never reaches the written protocol\, and the company is building what it calls the world's largest multimodal dataset of scien tific execution for models to reason over. Fellows get to work with that d ata. RESEARCH AGENDA\, eight named directions: multimodal reasoning (align ing video\, audio\, protocol text\, instrument traces\, timestamps\, gaze and outcomes)\; conflicting evidence (uncertainty and calibration\, eviden ce attribution\, contradiction-aware reasoning)\; long-context scientific memory (long-horizon state tracking\, retrieval over process histories\, f ailure and deviation memory)\; real-world evaluations (benchmark design\, process-level metrics\, lab-grounded model assessment)\; tacit expertise ( expert-novice comparison\, skill representation\, human-in-the-loop feedba ck)\; physical-world AI (embodied data pipelines\, transfer across setting s\, policy and assistance evaluation)\; biosecurity and bio-risk observabi lity (synthesis-to-execution verification\, emergent capability tracking\, autonomous vulnerability detection)\; and scientific execution ontology ( wet-lab-grounded metadata design\, cross-domain causal attribution\, multi -scale variability mapping). WHAT FELLOWS DO: define a research question\, build prototypes\, analyse real multimodal scientific-execution data\, pr essure-test evaluation ideas\, and produce a publishable or demo-grade art ifact\, with direct mentorship from Transfyr's founders\, technical team a nd advisor network across AI\, biology\, robotics and scientific operation s.

Normsy identifies toxic posts (typically content attacking or violating civic norms) and offers real users a set of AI-generated prosocial comments to choose from and post\; the open questi on is how to estimate the effect of those comments on content producers\, other commenters and bystanders who consume content without interacting me asurably. The current approach combines survey experiments (how active X u sers respond emotionally to threads with and without the intervention\, an d how it shifts agreement with and support for the original post) with pai d X API platform data (classifying comments before and after an interventi on\, plus coarse engagement metrics that cost money each time they are rec ollected). WHAT THEY WANT: a systematic way to leverage available platform data and maximise the utility of the survey experiments. Example proposal s include a strategy for measuring toxicity/prosociality and reach/visibil ity of a thread over time with a randomisation design generating a control group of threads\, or an approach to benchmarking the prosocial potential of AI-generated comments through an iterative arena with human judges or a theory-backed LLM validation approach with human validation.

Over 2\, 000 grants have been awarded to date. The programme is explicitly aimed at smaller teams\, solo developers and individuals as well as studios: Epic states that individuals and small teams are eligible and encouraged\, and that it treats every project equally regardless of who you are. WHAT IS FU NDED: (1) INDIE GAMES\, small or solo teams working in Unreal Engine\, sub mitted past the idea and design phase with at least some working prototype \, ideally with a video link\; (2) UEFN EXPERIENCES\, Fortnite Creative is lands and interactive experiences built in Unreal Editor for Fortnite\; (3 ) ENGINE MIGRATION\, a proportion of MegaGrants is reserved for teams movi ng a partially developed project from another engine to Unreal\; (4) FILM\ , TV AND LIVE EVENTS\, including live-action and animated films and shows\ , broadcast\, live and location-based events\; (5) OTHER NON-GAMES VERTICA LS such as architecture\, automotive\, manufacturing\, simulation\, produc t design\, advertising and VR/AR\, where more detailed project plans and p rototypes are expected\; (6) EDUCATION\, including research\, curricula an d course development and university programmes\, though for institutions E pic accepts submissions only from degree-granting schools and educators at such schools\; (7) TOOLS AND OPEN SOURCE\, creating open source tools or enhancing open source software using Unreal Engine. NON-UNREAL PROJECTS AR E ELIGIBLE if you want to move them to Unreal Engine\, or if the project e nhances open source 3D content creation whether or not it relates to Unrea l Engine. EVALUATION rests on three things: quality and unique appeal (hig h-quality demos or builds\, well-documented descriptions\, technical ambit ion)\; community benefit (how you will give back\, for example open-sourci ng the project\, releasing assets through a marketplace\, sharing learning s\, or shipping an SDK\, tool or plug-in)\; and viability (a clear budget with major spend areas and a project plan with milestones\, deliverables a nd timeline). NOTE ON DEADLINES: the FAQ still describes MegaGrants as an ongoing programme with no specific deadline\, but the timeline published o n the same page now runs in fixed cycles\, and the Cycle 2 submission wind ow closes 4 September 2026 at 23:59 ET. Treat the cycle date as the operat ive deadline. You may apply for more than one project\, and may reapply fo r the same project after a decision if you have made updates.

THIS YEAR'S THEME\, The Word\, is squarely about large lan guage models. The framework moves from the word as creative principle acro ss traditions (the Judeo-Christian creating God\, the Quran as uncreated w ord\, the Sanskrit Om and the Vedas\, mantras that summon rather than desc ribe) to science relocating that intuition in the cell (Sagan's four-lette r alphabet of DNA as a material text\, Margulis countering that the langua ge of life is chemistry\, Witzany holding that all cell interactions are s ign-mediated)\, and then to LLMs\, which for the first time detach the wor d from the flesh and generate text through a probabilistic architecture tr ained on human language. The call asks what LLMs reveal about authorship\, originality and meaning when a system generates text that moves\, persuad es or deceives without experience or intention\, and whether we can still say the models operate exclusively on human experience once they ingest th eir own output. It explicitly wants work that blurs comprehension and simu lation\, authorship and recombination\, and it names antecedents worth kno wing before applying: Ramon Llull's Ars Magna\, Joan Brossa's Sextina cibe rnetica\, Oulipo constraint writing\, oracles and divination\, oral-formul aic transmission\, translation as probabilistic approximation\, exquisite corpses\, Burroughs's cut-ups\, automatic writing\, musical improvisation and scientific simulation. Les antipodes asks for engagement 'beyond the i nstrumental use of the tools' and away from utopian and dystopian framings . WHAT YOU GET: spacious\, luminous\, independent work spaces plus a share d terrace in the centre of the village\, spaces for meeting\, dialogue and public presentation\, introductions to local\, academic\, artistic and pr ofessional contacts on request\, and support organising any activities tha t arise. The residency ends with an informal presentation\, and results ma y feed into the publications or public programme of Les antipodes. IMPORTA NTLY\, this is not an acquisition prize and involves no transfer of rights : authorship and intellectual property stay with the creators\, and select ion implies no acquisition of the work. Credits on resulting work must ack nowledge Numeric 2026 and its collaborators. WHO CAN APPLY: open to everyo ne of legal age\, any discipline or origin\, individually or as a collecti ve\, with the stipend shared among collective members. Applications must b e in Catalan or English whatever the working language of the project\, sub mitted through the online form with an optional PDF of up to 5 pages and 1 0 MB. One application per person or collective. EVALUATION\, in order of w eight: singularity and innovation\; relevance to this year's LLM framework \; and interaction and transfer of value\, meaning relations with the soci al and geographical environment of Agullana and the Emporda and a plan for presenting the outcome in editorial\, on-site\, performative\, sound\, au diovisual or other form. The call may be declared void if no proposal reac hes the required level. PRACTICAL: residents must hold their own health co ver (EHIC for EU citizens\, or valid travel or health insurance for Spain otherwise) and are responsible for their own equipment.

THE PREMISE: climate change is making major landslides\, ice-brea koff events from marine-terminating glaciers\, and sound-producing ice mov ements more common. These generate infrasonic vibrations inaudible to huma ns that sometimes spread across the entire planet and into the atmosphere. The residency asks how immersive sound techniques can make these events t angible and build meaningful sonic narratives from them. WHAT YOU GET ACCE SS TO: scientific data on seismological events\, vibrations\, infrasound a nd the movement of land and ice masses\, with scientific expertise from KN MI (lead researcher Jelle Assink) and artistic guidance from the Futures o f Listening team\, relating local events to global impact. RESEARCH QUESTI ONS to position your proposal against include how immersive sound can cult ivate situated listening to ecological processes and more-than-human encou nters\, how artistic and scientific methods of working with environmental data can inform each other\, and what is gained\, lost or ethically at sta ke when environmental sounds are translated\, interpreted or reconstructed through spatial and synthetic means. DELIVERABLE: residents are expected to create a final spatial sound production using the 4DSOUND system. Other outcomes may include immersive installations\, data-driven sonic works\, audiovisual pieces\, software prototypes or reusable methodologies. Experi ence in art-science environments is welcome but not required\; you may ins tead explain why working in one would benefit your practice. HARD ELIGIBIL ITY GATE: applicants must be based in the Netherlands AND registered as an artist with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KvK). This is not negotiable a nd rules out non-NL applicants. Futures of Listening is a Netherlands-base d platform for spatial sound\, immersive experience\, performance and inst allation art\, founded by FIBER Festival\, 4DSOUND\, Robin Koek and Art of Sound at the Royal Conservatoire The Hague\, supported by CIIIC and Stimu leringsfonds.\n\nOrganisation: Futures of Listening (FIBER\, 4DSOUND\, Rob in Koek\, Art of Sound) in collaboration with KNMI\, the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute\nLocation: Partially self-hosted\, partially at the 4DSOUND studio in Amsterdam\, and partially at KNMI in De Bilt near Ut recht\, Netherlands.\nAward: Total residency fee of EUR 7\,125\, calculate d as 25 commissioned days at a day rate of EUR 285.

THE PREMISE: architecture is traditionally conceive d through form\, structure\, material and light\, with sound treated as so mething to be controlled or optimised afterwards. This residency asks what happens if architecture begins with sound\, shifting the question from ho w a space should sound to how sound can generate space. Spatial audio\, vi rtual acoustics and immersive media now allow prototyping of responsive en vironments\, impossible architectures and sonic spaces beyond physical con straints. RESEARCH QUESTIONS include how sound can become a first principl e in architectural and spatial design\, how the acoustic properties of spa ce inform the creation and perception of spatial sound\, and how artistic research can shape the future tools\, interfaces and methods of spatial so und creation. NOT JUST ARTWORKS: they explicitly say they want new methods \, insights and creative infrastructures too. Outcomes may include install ations\, spatial audio compositions\, performances\, audiovisual works\, s oftware prototypes\, reusable methodologies or modular interfaces. Residen ts may collaborate with a 4DSOUND software developer to prototype new tool s\, and practitioners who already build their own software\, hardware or c reative technologies are encouraged to advance those as part of the reside ncy.

NO VISUALS: Worlding Narra tives centres sound as the primary medium for immersion and intentionally removes dominant visual layers such as VR\, AR\, projection or video. THE DESIGN PROBLEM they want tackled is translation and adaptation\, specifica lly the shift from one visitor in a headphone-mediated experience to rende ring for a multi-speaker system for group interaction. That change in dyna mics\, reproduction and perspective is integral to the residency scope. RE SEARCH QUESTIONS include how immersive sound can function as a primary nar rative medium across speculative and non-fictional realities\, what new na rrative structures and dramaturgical methods become possible when the crea tive process originates from sound rather than adapting frameworks from ot her media\, and how interactive sonic structures can create navigable list ening experiences designed for and by multiple intelligences. Outcomes may include interactive sonic prototypes\, spatial audio compositions\, immer sive listening experiences\, narrative sound works or software prototypes. WORTH NOTING: your residency runs in tandem with resident Pinar Temiz\, a n expert in sound design for gaming environments\, with the opportunity to work together.
