Open call: ACC Residency 2023 - Announcements


Asia Culture Center (ACC) is seeking participants for ACC Residency 2023. ACC has been organizing international residency programs not just as a form of artistic support policy, but a superlative creation/production program to produce novel and diverse content with creative talents from all over the world. As a forum for experimentation and exchange it envisions alternative futures based on a spirit of artistic engagement with reality. This year, the residency will be held in collaboration with ACC Sound Art Lab under the theme “Futures of Listening” which is also a long-term project led by ACC Sound Art Lab.

As part of the collaboration, the two programs will be jointly organizing creative support programs for participants including talks and workshops by four world-renowned soundscape experts. Based on these, residency participants are to develop and present concepts for individual projects exploring the theme. This will be followed by the actual production and realization of the project, culminating in a final showcase exhibition in November.

The ACC residency call is intended for researchers and creators who have worked in the fields of art (all genres), humanities/social sciences, and science/technology. Even those who have never worked in the soundscape genre before are welcome to participate. The selection will focus on those who demonstrate an open mindset toward the creation/production program, share novel and diverse projects, and have the capabilities to realize their ideas with a final creative product.

Through initial document review and subsequent interviews, ACC will be selecting eight artists/teams from Korea and overseas. The final selections will be announced on ACC website in March.

Selected creators and researchers will have access to ACC's technical equipment and infrastructure, including machine molding and digital A/V technology at the ACC creation studio. They will also receive a workspace and accommodations for a six-month period, along with 2 million won per month in creative activity funding and 15 million won total in production funding. Various other programs will also be provided, including history and culture tours and workshops. Overseas participants will receive airfare.

Applications may be downloaded in document form from the ACC website, completed, and submitted online.

China’s new space station opens for business in an increasingly competitive era of space activity

The International Space Station is no longer the only place where humans can live in orbit. On Nov. 29, 2022, the Shenzhou 15 mission launched from China's Gobi Desert carrying three taikonauts – the Chinese word for astronauts. Six hours later, they reached their destination, China's recently completed space station, called Tiangong, which means "heavenly palace" in Mandarin. The three taikonauts replaced the existing crew that helped wrap up construction. With this successful mission, China has become just the third nation to operate a permanent space station. China's space station is an achievement that solidifies the country's position alongside the US and Russia as one of the world's top three space powers. As scholars of space law and space policy who led the Indiana University Ostrom Workshop's Space Governance Program, we have been following the development of the Chinese space station with interest. Unlike the collaborative, US-led Inte

How Iran is accessing the social media accounts of protesters to incriminate them, experts say

Image
CNN — In between being blindfolded, locked in solitary confinement, and interrogated in a wheelchair while she was on a hunger strike following her late September arrest, Negin says she had a realization: Iranian officials were using her private Telegram chats, phone logs and text messages to incriminate her. “They told me 'Do you think you can get out of here alive? We will execute you. Your sentence is death penalty. We have evidence, we are aware of everything,'” said Negin, whose name CNN changed at her request, for her safety. Negin, who says she has been accused by Iranian authorities of running an anti-regime activist group on Telegram (an allegation she denies), said she has “some friends” who were political prisoners. “They put in front of me transcribed printouts of my phone conversations with those friends,” she said, and “questioned me on what my relationship with tho
