Yáo collaborative Digital Diasporas Residency 2023

Yáo collaborative is calling for applications from artists, collectives, and curators who self-identify as "Sino and/or Chinese diaspora" for their second remote, six-week-long online residency from May to June 2023.

Digital Diasporas is a spacious opportunity for artists to do deep thinking and form cross-border connections without the pressure of producing a final product.

The remote, six-week-long online residency will be facilitated by 3 host organisations in May and June 2023. Each resident or collective will primarily work with one host organisation and all residents as a cohort will be in dialogue with one another through convenings. Each resident or collective will be awarded an unrestricted stipend of 10,000 AUD.

The Digital Diasporas Residency provides time for research, exploration and learning. Yáo collaborative welcomesexperimental, digital, and/or research-based practices, and people who feel an alignment with and interest in any or all of the host organisations' networks and programming. They are especially interested in ideas that explore diasporic cultures and spaces, flows of people, goods and capital, alternative community and kin-making, digital cultures, media arts, philosophies of technology and place-making, as well as any intersections of these.
