Entitled New Research Practices, the launch grant program focuses on the impact of technologies on the methods and subject of artistic research. What forms does research take in the technology-rich present? To what extent does such a present determine its the subject of research and influence its means of representation? What is artistic research today? What distinguishes the knowledge it produces from scientific knowledge, and can they intersect and supplement one another? Can speculative research influence the solving of contemporary problems, and what tasks does it address?

Requirements

The program is open to Russian and international artists and groups applying with projects for a new work in any medium that allows for exhibition and distribution online. Projects must respond to the season’s theme and the key zones of interest of the Garage Digital program, which explores various aspects of the presence in everyday life and artistic practice of algorithmization, artificial intelligence, the Internet, big data, game mechanics and simulations, augmented and mixed reality, the latest production technologies, and digital infrastructure and landscapes.
