Themes & Strands

SCANZ Strands

Work being developed during the residency have some relationship to one or more of the following event strands:

Connection/Disconnection
a. Collaborative projects across hemispheres, between nations or cultures.
b. Fostering a sense of community and translocal media environment.
Environmental Response
Exploring the relationship between media and practitioner's response to an environmentally unique location - Taranaki, Aotearoa New Zealand, South Pacific. Environment here refers to human, natural and technological environments and the integration of these into diverse creative forms.

Themes

Three themes are central to Solar/Polar Circuits and SCANZ:

Fostering a sense of community and translocal media environment by enhancing links between northern and southern hemisphere practitioners.
Providing time, space and a unique environment for media artists to workshop, research and collaborate on creative methodologies.
To create an opportunity for artists to work together over a given period of time to develop new artistic content.
