This residency program provides opportunities for a diverse group of artists to advance their careers and knowledge of developing new media studio technologies and practices. We support experimentation that can be instrumental in the production of an expanding and culturally significant catalog of electronic, time-based, and new media artworks.
Artists have access to a combination of emerging, contemporary, and historical media arts tools and materials. Many of these tools are unique and not ordinarily available in a studio setting. The resident artists have 24-hour dedicated access to the IEA studios and equipment. The IEA staff will be available to work with the resident artist during the regular workday. Additionally, technical staff and faculty may also be available for consultation. The IEA video and sound studio offers artists an integrated system with real-time video image-processing software, hardware, and video capture. The print media studios have an extensive range of technologies that span across digital and traditional that explore many hybrid possibilities.
