DIY Residencies

DIY Residencies: a career in the arts on your own terms

Lisa Niedermeyer | Apr 21, 2014 5:00 am

Note from author: This article originally published April 2nd by The Guardian, a media outlet that serves primarily a UK-based audience. The sub headline read; ‘From 24-hour plays to co-op leasing, US artists are ditching traditional residencies in favour of working on their own terms’. The article has been shared on social media channels over 1,000 times since publishing. Comment sentiments ranged from “these are great ideas, I want to try doing this on my own terms”, to “duh - artists have been doing this forever”. In following the social media conversations, other interesting approaches to DIY Residencies were shared. I included some of these examples as an addendum to the article below and invite the Fractured Atlas audience to share additional examples via the comments. - Lisa Niedermeyer

NEXT TO NOTHING by Cassie Tunick, Heather Harpham, Danny Tunick. 

This musical/physical/vocal exposure of the present moment reveals what we've know all along-nothing happens for a reason. Next to nothing, there's always something clamoring to exist. In this fully improvised performance, distinctly evolved narratives dovetail with intricate dances. Songs avalanche out of sound, morph into gestural architectures with a keen ear for broken rhythms and altered states of mind. The will-o'-the-wisp moment is made flesh in Second Nature's ongoing exploration of the physical supernatural and the real-as-your-hometown. Lights by Nicholas Houfek.

July 25 - August 3, 2014 Tulane University | New Orleans, LA   Calling all artists, educators, activists and cultural workers! We invite you to apply for the opportunity to learn and share with us at the 2014 Summer Leadership Institute (SLI). Join us as we research the models of The Free Southern Theater (FST)/Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). Based on our research we will spend 10 intensive days learning from elders involved with FST, sharing our own best practices for community organizing and place-based art making and collaborating on a culminating performance that highlights our learning. Don't miss out on the chance to be a part of this unique experience! Discover why many participants apply to SLI year after year As a non-profit leader who is growing and evolving in my understanding of my own organization's impact on the individuals and communities where we work and why I felt the urge to create it in the first place, my participation in the SLI was crucial in giving me access to others who might be confronting similar questions but also offering me the space to explore movement and song in my own way as a "language" for connecting to my often turbulent emotions and thoughts. - SLI Alum   Need financial assistance? We offer a limited number of scholarships and intern positions. Participants may also apply through an organization or third-party funder.   All applications are due April 4, 2014   Participants must be 18+ years old and are required to participate for the full 10 days.     If you have any questions please email Keisha Turner, SLI Coordinator at sli@urbanbushwomen.org or call our SLI line at 718-398-4783.
