What: Net Art Commissions @ $3/$4,000
   
  intermedia and multidisciplinary in scope
innovative + experimental work for the Internet
individual or collaborative
 
Deadline: May 31, 2003
 
Jurors: Remo Campopiano/bio; George Fifield/bio; Helen Thorington/bio.
   
Criteria: The goal of these commissions is to support artists who explore and interpret the possibilities for artistic innovation on the Internet. We will consider projects that open up the possibility of collaboration, communication, and interactivity/exchange with others: projects that actively engage the user are encouraged. We will also look for information-based projects and projects that create unique systems of data organization. Software art is also acceptable.
   
Guidelines: Artist's proposals should be in the form of a web site that includes: (i) a well defined and compelling description of the project's core concept and how it will make creative use of the Internet; (ii) details on how the project will be realized and with whom— collaborators must be named—and preliminary technical specifications; (iii) a short biography; and (iv) up to three examples of prior work accessible on the web that demonstrate the artist's ability to complete the project.
   
Timeline: Artists awarded a commission will be notified in early July and will have 3-5 months to complete the work: the launch dates will be negotiated with project staff. All works will be promoted to the Turbulence mailing list and other list serves: press, arts organizations, colleges and universities, and galleries and museums.
