European Media Art Platform (EMAP)
Initiated by werkleitz in 1995 as EMARE and co-funded by the Creative Europe program since 2018 under the new name European Media Art Platform, EMAP is the longest-standing European initiative that Ars Electronica Platform Europe participates in. Currently made up of 16 leading European organizations with a wide range of expertise in digital and media art, bio art, and robotic art, the consortium is joined every year by a different international partner in hosting artist residencies focused on intercultural and interdisciplinary knowledge exchange.
Besides artists and host organizations, the EMAP residency program involves various experts from science, arts, and technology to consult, support or train the artists, thus aligning with Ars Electronica’s long-term interest in exploring new narratives about the ubiquitous Technosphere through incubation and transdisciplinary practices.
As a member institution of EMAP, Ars Electronica hosts one residency production per year as well as an annual group show in the context of the Ars Electronica Festival.
