Wave Farm
About
Wave Farm's annual international open call for up to six residencies and fellowships in 2027 at its Study Center in Acra, New York, home of WGXC 90.7-FM. Two 10-day residencies, Transmission Art and Spatial Sound, support the development of new transmission artwork, the latter in a dedicated 8-channel spatial sound studio, each with a $1,000 stipend, workspace, equipment, a research library, and staff support. Two 2-month Radio Art Fellowships, one in research (selecting historical and contemporary radio artworks for Wave Farm's Broadcast Radio Art Archive and producing a short broadcast series) and one in community engagement (developing and leading a public workshop on radio), each carry a $2,000 stipend and combine remote work with a 10-day onsite visit. One application covers all 2027 opportunities. A peer panel of transmission artists, engineers, and past residents reviews proposals; finalists are interviewed over Zoom and notified in late February.
Eligibility
International open call for artists, researchers, and tinkerers who either have a significant body of transmission-related work or can demonstrate the capacity to realize the proposed project. Full-time students are ineligible, with case-by-case exceptions for career artists in post-graduate study. DJ sets are not eligible projects. Past Wave Farm residents and fellows may apply.
