Australian Network for Art & Technology (ANAT) is calling for applications
from artists and science and research organisations for the 2012 Synapse
Residency program. <span style=""> </span>Now in its seventh
round, the program is a core element of the Synapse initiative of the Australia
Council for the Arts and ANAT, which supports collaboration between artists and
scientists.</span></p>

artists with a demonstrated interest in science working in any discipline
and/or medium. Australian-based residencies of 16 weeks’ duration that take
place during the 2012 calendar year will be supported.</span></p>

host organisation, <span style="">a joint application must be submitted</span>.
<span style=""> </span>It is the responsibility of the
project partners to establish contact and to identify the nature of the
proposed collaboration prior to application. <span style=""> </span>Those with existing relationships are strongly encouraged to
apply. The Synapse residencies have a creative research focus and it is not
expected that they will result in the production of new work. The residencies
may also be approached as a platform for testing and informing a more
comprehensive, longer-term research project suitable for submission to the ARC
Synapse Linkage program.</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Corbel;" lang="EN-US"></span></p>
