The festival coincides with special project launches that were supported by Eyebeam’s Rapid Response for a Better Digital Future – a fully-digital artist fellowship that was launched in response to the onset of Covid-19 crisis, marking the beginning of a new kind of artist support at Eyebeam. In June 2020 Eyebeam put out a call aimed to untangle important questions around society’s relationship to emerging technology, and to put forward tangible solutions. The event will feature timely inquiries and tactics from field leaders on topics ranging from consensual coding to interspecies communications, and will include contributions from: Amelia Winger Bearskin, Aza Raskin, Chancey Fleet, Cydney Brown (BEAM), Dorothy Santos, Elaine Díaz, Joan Greenbaum, Julie Ricard, Juno Mac, LaJuné McMillian, Kara Gilmour, Laura Raicovich, Lauren Ruffin, Laurie Jo Reynolds, Legacy Russell, Miguel A. López, Mutale Nkonde, Nash Sheard, Nisa Mackie, Paige Mulhern, Salome Asega, Sasha Costanza-Chock, Timothy Morton, and Vincent Southerland. During the four days, Eyebeam will unveil the eight ambitious projects designed and launched by Phase 2 Rapid Response fellows, including: Aladin Borioli (Apian), Dillon Sung in Collaboration with the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition*, Juan Pablo García Sossa (JPGS)*, Rashaad Newsome, Solar Protocol (Tega Brain, Alex Nathanson, and Benedetta Piantella), Valencia James (Volumetric Performance Toolbox), Veil Machine (Empress Wu, Niko Flux, and Sybil Fury), and Xin Xin.
