Open Call for Artist Residency & Worklab
August 14, 2025 (rolling review)
Dates & location of event context
5-day residency in Graz, Austria (December 1-5, 2025)
mur.at and the Collective Intelligence Association (CIA) are looking
for a number of artists or collectives to participate in a 5-day
artistic residency and worklab in Graz, Austria. Throughout the year,
mur.at has been collecting intelligence from artists, collectives, and
passersby in Graz and beyond. The selected artists will together
collaborate with CIA and the mur.at team to work with this collected
material and develop an artistic investigation that may take the form
of data-mining art, a documentary on intelligence, a net art
provocation, new software—or something entirely unexpected. The form
is open. The only condition is that it must emerge within the thematic
frame of collective intelligence. Since the annual theme is KI –
Kollektive Intelligenz (Collective Intelligence), we propose that the
structure of the five-day worklab – based on the idea of an open
Barcamp to the mur.at community – to be collectively defined by the
invited participants.
