"Leonardo and the Center for Science and the Imagination are proud to announce
our second Imagination Fellowship, starting in August 2023. In this virtual,
global program, fellows will develop experimental media projects exploring
diverse aspects of Planetary Health Futures, including but not limited to
issues of climate, human well-being, interspecies relationships, democracy,
emerging social structures, and safeguarding the Earth’s habitability for
humans and other life forms. Applications are due on June 2, 2023 at 11:59pm
MST.
Fellows will reflect on how their projects support, align with and add new
complexity and nuance to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs). They should also substantively engage with the notion of experimental
media, charting new territory in areas like expanded reality, immersive
storytelling, worldbuilding, and more. Projects should embrace global
perspectives and invite global participation, and demonstrate commitment to
justice and equity.
Each fellow will produce a discrete media artifact, and will be supported in
collaborative, cross-disciplinary experimentation with practice and process
throughout the fellowship period. Examples of outputs or deliverables include,
but are not limited to experimental publishing projects, from books and
novellas to zines and networked texts; expanded reality projects, from virtual
and augmented reality to mixed reality; games and interactive experiences;
films and video installations; sonic environments and acoustic experiences."
