<h1>Summer Sessions 2012 - Call for Proposals</h1>
<br>
<h2>V2_’s Summer Sessions are brief themed residencies that allow
promising young artists to collaborate with V2_Lab developers. We
are looking for art project proposals, don't miss this
opportunity!</h2>
<p><br>
</p>
<h3>Submission deadline: April 15 2012, notification of acceptance
before May 10th.</h3>
<p><br>
We are looking for art projects that fit one of the Lab’s three
areas of focus: wearable technology, augmented reality and ecology
but we are also open to proposals within your personal field of
interest. Your project should be conceptually sound and outline a
concrete, realistic plan. Your proposal’s chance of being selected
will be directly proportional to its quality.<br>
<br>
Each selected artist participates in an intense working period
during July and August, in which he or she develops a project from
concept to artwork, ready for presentation at a public event. We
schedule the residencies to overlap as much as possible so that we
can foster an active working atmosphere in the Lab and stimulate
interaction between artists. The Summer Sessions will conclude
with Test_Lab presentations in Rotterdam and within an
international festival context. </p>
<p>Are you an ambitious, early-career artist with an interesting
idea for a project? Then send us your plan by April 15, 2012. To
apply, submit a video presentation of maximum three minutes in
which you briefly explain your project, the support you expect to
need from the Lab, and why we should choose you to take part in
the Summer Sessions.</p>
