What it is

A four-month incubation programme for emerging creators working at the intersection of art and technology. The 2026 edition is themed Soft Circuits for Hard Times, inviting proposals that test technology's assumptions and build alternatives that can pause, forget, slow down, or care. Encouraged formats include micro-scale technologies, sound and music works, projections and installations, media-based performances, and small-scale site-responsive projects. The programme culminates in a public showcase and industry meetings event at Onassis Ready in Athens.

Who it is for

Emerging artists, creative technologists, designers, game makers, performers, and interdisciplinary teams working in art and technology.

Open to artists anywhere.
