The Synapse Residencies place Australian artists into science and research settings to pursue collaborative projects with benefits accruing to both the resident and the host organisation.
In this third round, we made some changes to the application process. In order to encourage early relationship-building and to ensure the best fit between artist and host organisation, we required a joint proposal to be submitted. As well, this requirement resulted in the best possible collaborative project being identified prior to application. Artists and scientists with existing relationships were also strongly encouraged to submit proposals.
Drawn from a very strong field, the following four residencies were supported:
Kirsty Boyle - at the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Lab, University of Zurich (Switzerland)
Madeleine Flynn & Tim Humphrey - at the Garvan Institute, Sydney (Australia)
Tina Gonsalves - at the University of Brighton & Sussex Medical School and the Centre for Neuroimaging, Wellcome Trust, London (UK)
Gregory Hooper - at the Queensland Brain Institute, University of Queensland (Australia)
Delivered in partnership with the Australia Council for the Arts
