Triple Canopy is pleased to announce its first call for proposals. We will be commissioning ten projects spanning the five areas outlined below-original research, new-media journalism, public programming, Internet-specific artwork, and critical dialogues-to be published in the magazine and presented before live audiences in the next year. Submissions and proposals are due by February 15, 2010. For more detailed information, visit our commissions page.
This first round of commissions is supported in part by a generous grant from the Brown Foundation, Inc. of Houston. Commissions will be accompanied by a modest honorarium, the amount of which will reflect the scope of the project and the cost of its development. Support future commissions by making a tax-deductible contribution online now.
Project areas
Research Work
Research Work was established to facilitate the creation of research projects that are produced outside academia, for a general audience; employ Internet-specific methods of presentation; and serve a public best reached by making the work available for free online.
Internet as Material
Internet as Material was established to support emerging and mid-career artists who have never before made work specifically for the Web in the production of an online project. These projects further Triple Canopy’s mission by utilizing the Internet-which is too often understood as a channel for the transfer of information-as a medium for the development of artworks that actively engage readers.
Thinking Through Images
Thinking Through Images was established to foster conversations about images and videos of cultural, political, and social relevance, between artists, writers, researchers, and other cultural practitioners working in different fields. The program aims to facilitate close readings of popular media and fine art-from nineteenth-century paintings to Internet memes to documentation of current events-that consider these cultural products in a common context.
New Media Reporting Project
The New Media Reporting Project was established to provide journalists an outlet for-and provide them with the training and technical resources and expertise to realize-in-depth, critical reports executed in multiple media, with the goal of providing an immersive experience of the stories and subjects that shape our age.
New Programming
New Programming was established to support the development of exhibitions, panel discussions, performances, film screenings, and other public events that examine the intersection of culture, politics, and technology.
About Triple Canopy
Triple Canopy works collectively with writers, artists, researchers and other collaborators on projects that deal critically with culture and politics, and the ways people engage them, both online and in the world at large. These investigations are realized in an online magazine as well as in public programs and print publications encompassing various fields and locales. We aim to present work and advance ideas informed by a multitude of disciplines and perspectives, and to disseminate them among a broad and diverse audience. Triple Canopy, a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization, was founded in late 2007; our first issue was published on March 17, 2008.
