NEW INC's Year 9 Open Call

NEW INC is a shared workspace and incubator program supporting a multidisciplinary community of individuals and small teams. Our year-long program runs September 2022-August 2023, and is designed to support creative practitioners as they pursue a sustainable practice or bring a new business to life. We are based in NYC, but welcome virtual participation.

WE ARE SEEKING: People in art, tech, design, science, or architecture looking to build or sustain their practices as they explore: extended realities, climate futures, internet-based art practice, monument and archive making, or new models for re-imagining social and public space through design and architecture.

WHAT’S NEW FOR YEAR 9:

📣 Return to In-Person: NEW INC has found a new in-person home and will return to coworking space! Memberships types include Dedicated Desk, Hot Desk, and fully virtual options.

🖥️ Virtual Offering: To expand our offering to a greater community of people, we will continue to offer our programming activities virtually throughout next year.

Y9 is organized into five Tracks:

• Art & Code: Redefining cultural and digital landscapes through artist-led research and projects, in partnership with Rhizome.
• Creative Science: Exploring climate futures at the junction of art and science.
• Collective Abundance: Re-imagining social and public space to hold the many through design and architecture.
• Extended Realities: Expanding the artistic potentials for technology to blur the physical and digital worlds.
• Future Memory: Rewriting dominant narratives to build collective power.
