Gluon invites artists to submit proposals for the development and production of new work in collaboration with the Brain and Emotion Laboratory, a research group that is part of the department of Cognitive Neuroscience at the Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience, University of Maastricht (NL). Gluon offers a two-month residency at the Brain and Emotion Laboratory lead by Prof. Beatrice De Gelder. The goal of the residency is to create a new artwork which integrates and/or reflects upon the innovative technological and scientific developments researched by the Brain and Emotion Laboratory.
Therefore we invite you – artists – to develop, in collaboration with the researchers from the Brain and Emotion Laboratory, a prototype for a new artwork. The group investigates emotion and cognition in humans. Their projects include investigations of emotion and cognition in neurologically intact participants, but also in patients with focal brain lesions, and prosopagnosia, neuropsychiatric populations such as people with schizophrenia, autism and Williams syndrome. They use behavioral methods, electrophysiology, EMG, as well as functional imaging.
GLUON x Brain & Emotion Lab, University of Maastricht (NL)
Artistic residence from 6 March 2017 to 8 May 2017
Deadline : 18 December 2016, 11:00 (GMT+1) PM
Focus areas :
* For more information about the groups expertise, please see: www.beatricedegelder.com and the website of University Maastricht.
You will get the opportunity to develop your ideas and a prototype together with the researchers of the Brain and Emotion Laboratory. This can be an application, a maquette, mock-ups, code or 3D-visualisations, etc. Next to the labs of Brain and Emotion, the workshops of Gluon’s partners are at your disposal (Fablabs, Medialabs) for further development of the prototype.
For the development and production of the prototype Gluon will grant up 5000 EUR to maximum one artist.

ABOUT GLUON Gluon is a ‘workshop of the future’ that supports multidisciplinary initiatives, in which artists play an important role. Through the development and production of Art&Development labs, lectures, exhibitions and workshops for students Gluon maximises cross collaboration between artists, researchers and industries. By connecting artists, researchers and entrepreneurs, innovative ideas arise that an individual could not think of on his own. This approach results in a critical reflection upon technological and scientific developments, but it also stimulates innovation and experiment in non-creative environments. ► Web site |
