Short Description
Error 417 Expectation Failed is looking for 10 scores against tech fascism. Artists, curators, and collectives worldwide are invited to apply with project ideas, instructions, how-tos, interventions and practices that engage with the contemporary condition. This call for resistance is not about global fixes or sweeping victories — it’s about finding ways to challenge the current systems with the means available: misdirection, opting out, and pushing back. Respond to Tech Fascism with Error 406 Not Acceptable.
Eligibility
The application is open to artists worldwide, collectives, curators, arts initiatives, exhibition spaces, online platforms, and developers of software and hardware — basically anyone exploring the possibilities of contemporary, networked technologies as art and their significance for society.
We encourage proposals from people who are historically underrepresented in art and technology spaces.
