Description

Sitka residencies provide time and space for self-paced work and reflection in an inspiring natural setting. Residents from a broad range of art, writing, performance and science-based practices come to Sitka to create and explore away from the familiar contexts and constraints of daily routines, and free from external expectations. Located within the unique ecosystems of Cascade Head and the Salmon River Estuary on Oregon's central coast, Sitka is a place where natural curiosity is sparked and creativity is unleashed.

Description

In our Computational Writing residency, participants can better engage with computing to develop their own systems, whether their goals are conventional book publication or other manifestations of literary art. Methods participants can engage include (but are not limited to) templates, document schemata, grammars, Markov processes, rule-based transformation of existing texts, simulation of characters and settings, vector-space models and word embeddings, and work with LLMs —including fine-tuning them and training them from scratch. Delve deep into your creative project and take advantage of the artistic community of your peers around you.

Faculty include computational writing specialists Dr. Nick Montfort, Dr. Lillian-Yvonne Bertram, Kalen Iwamoto, and professional guest Dr. Daniel Snelson (UCLA).

Description

The 2026 Slow Travel Artist Residency (22 April–12 May 2026) invites two artists based in France and Germany to explore Scotland’s landscapes, sustainability challenges, and climate solutions. Travelling by train or boat, participants will journey from their home countries through Edinburgh, Glasgow, Cove Park, and Linkshouse in Orkney. The programme focuses on the themes of rewilding and the oceans, with no required production outcomes, allowing each artist to engage according to their own practice. Optional activities include school outreach, site visits, and networking with Scottish cultural and environmental organisations. The residency culminates in an Artist Talk in Edinburgh or Glasgow. Eligible applicants work in time‑based or durational media and demonstrate prior engagement with ecological themes. All travel and accommodation are provided, alongside a daily stipend and additional fees for talks and school visits. Applications include a portfolio and statement of interest, and are encouraged from diverse backgrounds.
