In 2023, the Wave Farm Residency Program will emphasize “feral frequencies,” prioritizing proposals that employ and/or activate less commonly used frequencies within the radio spectrum and the electromagnetic spectrum at large. Applicants are invited to propose visual and sonic projects that fall within the Transmission Arts genre. Projects that prioritize frequencies other than FM and AM allocations will be most competitive. New in 2023, a team of consulting artist engineers will participate in the application review process both for evaluation of feasibility, as well as to identify areas where tool development will assist the proposed projects and inform a growing inventory of resources for future transmission artists.

A sub-genre of the media arts, transmission art is defined as works where the electromagnetic spectrum is an intentional actor (either formally or conceptually) in the work. The electromagnetic spectrum is vast including seven primary types of waves: Radio Waves, Microwaves, Infrared Waves, Visible Light Rays, Ultraviolet Waves, X-rays, and Gamma Rays. Naturally occurring radio waves are emitted by lightning and astronomical objects. Radio-related projects, either conventional radio art works (audio made explicitly for radio broadcast) or do-it-yourself radio-based installation and performance where artists might build their own transmission and receiving devices are common manifestations of transmission art in action. Another common trajectory of the genre is making the ethereal tangible, for example works that demonstrate a physical delineation of space through sonic or visual representation: the architecture of transmission and reception.

Transmission art encompasses works in which the act of transmitting or receiving is not only significant, but the fulcrum for the artist’s intention. The genre involves a multiplicity of practices that often engage aural and visual broadcast media, where in some instances works for traditional broadcast are created, and at other times artists harness preexisting broadcast signals as source material manipulated in live performance; installation; and public interactive networks and tools. Similarly interested in the synaesthetic possibilities of radio, much of contemporary transmission art values interplay with waves, informed by historical and emergent wireless technologies. These works often challenge a conventional one-to-many definition of transmitter (or artist) and receiver (or audience) in ways that celebrate Brechtian aspirations for more multi-nodal wireless interactions.

The Residency Program hosts one artist-in-residence at a time, which on occasion is two individuals working as a collaborative duo. Artists are housed in the Wave Farm Study Center. Accommodations in the Study Center include two bedrooms (one full-sized bed each), studio workspace, kitchenette, lavatory, shower, as well as the Study Center library, WGXC 90.7-FM Acra broadcast studio, and Wave Farm offices. WiFi, electrical, and audio hook-ups are available throughout the bulk of the Wave Farm 29-acre property. Please note: day visitors are welcome. Overnight guests (including family members) and pets are not permitted.

Wave Farm Residency Program

2023 MAXmachina lab program. We are looking for projects that expand live performance by using science and technology to explore the promise and the peril of our rapidly changing world. 

In addition to pairing projects with advisors and collaborators when needed, MAX provides residents with development strategies and active production support. MAXmachina projects are chosen for their artistic potential, ability to instill wonder, qualities of aural and visual fascination, diversity of perspective, and emotional and philosophic potency.

Works developed in MAXmachina will be presented at our next MAXlive festival.
Building on MAXlive 2021: The Neuroverse, our 2023 programming will continue to traverse the boundaries between intelligences: natural and artificial, human and more than human. We are excited to bring creators and audiences together again to examine our role in an increasingly unstable planet.

Artlink Residencies 2023

The Enos Park Residency for Visual Artists offers long-term residencies that provide living and studio space, and community through which to reflect and engage one’s work. We accept applications from emerging, mid-career, and established artists working in all media, and especially those who emphasize community engagement, social practice, or socially-engaged works.

​Our residencies can serve up to four artists at one time. Resources provided to artists include living facilities, studio facilities, solo or group exhibition opportunities, studio visits with visiting artists and curators, opportunities to present lectures, discussions, or workshops, and assistance with forging community and city partnerships as desired.

The program is developed primarily as a means to support artists and secondarily as an avenue for community revitalization through artists’ contributions, works, and relocation. The historic Enos Park neighborhood is in a transitional state. At the turn of the twentieth century this neighborhood was the jewel of Springfield, but like many historic neighborhoods it has suffered decline. Today we are working to revitalize the area and aspire to develop a rich presence of artists in the neighborhood to lead the city of Springfield into a new phase of history. Though not exclusively, we particularly seek artists who will invest in/work with the rich historic context of the neighborhood, work with the immediate community, and shine a light on the increasingly potent potential of the Enos Park revitalization.
