TURBULENCE Commissions

Application Guidelines for Commissions
Up to twenty net art projects are commissioned and presented on Turbulence annually.
When
You may send proposals throughout the year. Commissions are generally announced twice a year. Upcoming Deadlines:

New York Residents: May 31, 2012
All Practitioners:
June 30, 2012

Commissioned projects must be completed within nine months.
Who
Commissions are available to "emerging" and established practitioners.
How Much
The commissioning fee is generally $2,000 to $4,000.
Conditions
The completed project will be presented exclusively on the Turbulence web site for three years. The artist retains copyright to the work. The artist grants NRPA the non-exclusive right to archive and present the project in perpetuity.
What We're Looking For
The goal of these commissions is to support work that creatively explores the Internet as a site of production and transmission. This includes work by individual artists and collaboratives; work that uses the net as a repository and work that explores its possibilities as a conduit. Or both. All artists are encouraged to consider how their project advances creative use of the network.
Selection Process
Different panels of jurors are assembled for each round of commissions.
How to Apply
Send an email with the following information:

1. In the subject header: "Turbulence Proposal—your name."

2. Artist info. including full name, residence address, email address, and short bio with links to online projects
..

3. A description of the intended project, including:

c)



d)
project title and description

why and/or how you consider it to be network-based art?

technical specifications: see server specs. Note: we cannot purchase software for you. Please tell us how much space and bandwidth you envision using.

budget
Proposals can be in the form of text in the body of the email, or an attached text file. The assumption is that online examples of work will be sufficient to review. Only emailed proposals will be considered.
