Description

Cda-Projects Grant is offering a 10,000 Euro grant to support the production of an artistic research project. The grant aims at supporting and opening up discussions on artistic research to an expanded network through an international open call. It encourages speculative approaches to how discourse is staged and how knowledge is produced, rethought and interwoven across disciplines. Without any limitations on the content, the proposed inquiries are expected to suggest new forms and methodologies by reflecting on contexts and conditions of the knowledge produced.

Cda-Projects Grant will also support a publication after the completion of the project that brings together discussions on the artistic research undertaken, including the questions raised, speculative analysis and the final outcome. The publication will be prepared by Cda-Projects Grant in cooperation with the grant recipient.

Project selection will be made after assessing the proposals considering the following criteria:

  • Ability to speculate on what knowledge is and suggest new forms of knowledge production.
  • Ability to articulate an innovative methodology and form in relation to the content.
  • Project feasibility according to the complementary documents provided, as well as the documentation for the proposed project.
  • A dynamic working methodology which considers artistic practice from multiple viewpoints including theoretical, conceptual, aesthetic and beyond.
  • A willingness to take risks and try completely new and unfamiliar working methodologies.

  • 10,000 Euros will be paid in three installments. The first payment of 3,000 Euros will be made in January 2013. The grantee is obliged to provide a progress report on 30 March, 2013.

  1. The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

  2. Though it can be irritating that may suggest that you will want
    to down load an uninstaller to end off the occupation for you.
    rar archives are now commonly used when placing files on-line.
    If this program is not registered yet, you
    may now evaluate the efficiency of this application with some functional restrictions.

  3. Though it can be irritating that may suggest that you will want to down load an uninstaller to end off the occupation
    for you. Recovery Toolbox for RAR is very small and easy to use, the process of Win
    – RAR file header corrupt recovery can be reproduced by following
    the directions of rar recovery service, it is much
    easier than similar programs. It takes minutes to learn how to delete search web content, computer
    files of no use and temporary files and folders.

  4. Apart from getting the mostly used Archive it supports.
    If you do not want to pay for the services of a professional to recover your data after you
    have accidentally formatted your hard drive, then
    using this software is a wise decision to make. So consider carefully
