Rhode Island School of Design: The Movement Lab Fellowship

The Movement Lab at Rhode Island School of Design is seeking two research affiliates for 10-month term appointments in the Movement Lab Fellowship, commencing in the North American autumn of 2025.

The Movement Lab Fellowship programme supports postgraduate work that explores movement at the intersection of language, identity, cultures, ecosystems, and/or peoples. Incumbents in the Movement Lab Fellowship will spend this time focused on their independent creative work/research projects.

The art and study of movement is central to many disciplines and work may include, but not be limited to, the expanded fields of animation, filmmaking, immersive arts, performance, game arts, dance, puppetry, robotics, and kinetic sculpture. Bringing their individual perspectives to the Film/Animation/Video department, they will support ongoing efforts to decolonise curricula and advance the mission of the Movement Lab as a collaborative cross-disciplinary centre for the creative study of movement.

All Movement Lab Fellows from the three-year grant period will be invited to participate in a virtual symposium in spring 2026, presenting their work and research with a larger community.

Project proposals are open to recent graduates from a broad range of disciplines with an MFA, MA, or PhD (ABD is acceptable).

Movement Lab Fellows will receive a competitive salary (in the salary range of 535EX: ranging between 56,500 USD and 84,700 USD), benefits, and additional compensation for teaching commitments.

Deadline: 13 December 2024
