[Reader-list] UnBox Fellowships 2013 - Action at the Intersections

[rohitrellan at aol.in]

Hello all,


The UnBox Festival is back, & with it, UnBox Fellowships 2013. If you're passionate, interesting & interested, we want to hear about it!

We combine interdisciplinary practice, honest & intimate experiences, and, most importantly, a chance to experience a “hands-on, minds-on” immersion with new friends— Everything that the UnBox ’13* Festival is about.

The UnBox Fellowship is a 3-4 week programme for 15 fellows from creative industries and related research fields. Teams of 3 will be placed at 5 host organizations in India where they will explore ‘design thinking’ for: sustainable communities, innovation in digital media, social change, entrepreneurship and new technologies.

Fellows will also have the opportunity to present outcomes and ideas at UnBox for a chance to bid for booster funding to continue fellowship outcomes.

Fellowship opportunities:
UnBUILD: Explore sustainable approaches to art, food, crafts & heritage with People Tree in Goa.
UnMAP: Map important cultural sites along Grand Trunk Road and build interactive ways of disseminating information about them with CRCI in Sirhind.
UnPLAY: Explore Kinect-based technology to develop interactive games as a means to communicate social messages with Quicksand in Delhi.
UnTILL: Work with technology to increase awareness around better farming techniques and community participation with Digital Green in Delhi.
UnVEIL: Use film and digital media to make issues around law and governance easier to understand and engage in with PRS Legislative in Delhi.
