<div dir="ltr">Dear Miloš,<div><br></div><div>Thank you for sharing this interesting opportunity with the list. I wish I would have heard about it sooner than the day of the application deadline, though, and a cursory search through my local archive did not turn up earlier notifications about this either. This is of course not a problem specific to this call - so I want to instead end this for a general plea to be considerate and accommodating to the class of cultural producers, who - next to precarious work and unstable academic positions - might take the time to put together a thoughtful, purpose-built applications to such calls, if only they had the time to make time to do so...</div><div><br></div><div>Respectfully,</div><div>Gottfried Haider</div><div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Nov 17, 2019 at 7:52 AM miloš vojtěchovský <<a href="mailto:zvukac@centrum.cz" target="_blank">zvukac@centrum.cz</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><h3>We invite artists or theoreticians in the field of new media to apply for a residency at the Vašulka Kitchen Center for New Media Art and The Brno House of Arts.
