NEO FUTURE
Special theme residency program by Arteles
in Hämeenkyrö, Finland
1-2 month periods in Mar-Apr 2016
Alternate Futures
Utopians, dark dystopians, transhumanists and cyborgs. Space travel and other galaxies. Singularity. Retro-futurism and future societies – after artificial intelligence, after apocalypse, after art?
Neo Future program brings together international, future-oriented artists & creators. Located in the middle of nowhere in rural Finland, Arteles Creative Center serves as the ideal place to envision, outline and work on your own futuristic sceneries and scenarios. Share approaches and get inspired with other artists and visionaires willing to go beyond here & now, to come up with something 'neo'.
The pre-defined structure of the program is flexible. Depending on your own preference and interests, you can aim at on-site collaborations, or concentrate intensively on your own practice and ideas. In either case, the emphasis is on your own creative process and development – there is no pressure to produce finalized works.

## Silence Awareness Existence - theme residency in Finland, Dec 2015 - Feb 2016

Deadline:
Wed Apr 15, 2015 23:59

Location:
Hämeenkyrö, Finland

SILENCE AWARENESS EXISTENCE
Special theme residency program by Arteles
in Hämeenkyrö, Finland
1 or 2 month periods in Dec 2015 / Jan 2016 / Feb 2016
Deadline for applications: 15th of April 2015
Retreat into existence
The Finnish winter being famous for its darkness, S.A.E offers an extreme retreat into existence through art, silence and nature. The program brings together creative minds that are interested and working around the theme on various fields.
The predefined structure of the program is kept empty, and more extreme elements can be added to it if the residents wish so(e.g limited internet access to limit the escapism through web, silent (=no speaking) days). Conditions are excellent for both collaborating and for concentrating on your own work, thinking and being. There is no pressure to necessarily produce anything, in case you are more into inner development.
Northern experience
The Northern winter is an experience like no other. The sun stays low on the horizon, leaving the days short with long blue moments and dark nights. Snow is likely to cover the grounds, and the landscape is very monotone. If you get lucky, you can even catch a glimpse of the Northern lights. The raw & rural surroundings create an ideal setting for personal inner journeys and research.
The program is organized by Arteles Creative Center, one of the largest and most international residency centers in Finland & Scandinavia.

Hämeenkyrö, Finland

Silent nature & solitude
Surrounded by beautiful forests, fields and lakes, Arteles Residency provides the perfect setting for intense writing and mindplay close to the nature. The same award-winning landscapes (European Union Landscape Award 2009) have also been an inspiration for F. E. Sillanpää, the Nobel Prize winning author born and raised in the region.
The predefined structure of the program is very flexible, allowing you all the time & space you need in order to take your work where it wants to go. Weekly group meetings are a good chance for feedback and discussions, but if you feel more like barricading in your writer’s chamber, you are completely free to do so, as all participation is 100 % voluntary.
Experiment freely
To accompany the intensive solo practice, the program is an excellent opportunity to join forces with other text-based creatives from around the world. Share, examine, go cross-genre – play around and see what comes out. Brainstorms to be finished in the heat of the traditional Finnish sauna.
