[Open Design + Hardware] Designer in Residence: London Design Museum

• Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ]

Hey all,

Hope this email finds you well! Call-out for a Designer in Residence at
London's Design Museum. Would be great to see open/participatory design
principles represented in the next round:

"During the four months leading up to the exhibition, each resident
discusses their proposed project with established practitioners, industry
experts and residency alumni — the idea being that these conversations
promote critical dialogue and challenge their ideas. Alongside these
exchanges, they consult with the Design Museum's legal, commercial,
development, learning and curatorial teams in order to gain a greater
understanding of how their work fits within the museum's wider context.

To gain one of the coveted places on the programme, applicants must respond
to an open submission and brief, set by the Design Museum. Previous briefs
have covered site-specific interaction, collecting, the notion of
community, thrift, the pursuit of imperfection, and identity. To be
eligible, residents must live and work in the UK, have graduated within the
last five years, and must have been working professionally (or voluntarily)
in some form of design practice for at least a year. At what the museum
feels is a critical point in a designer’s career, each resident is offered
a bursary, commissioning budget and the production costs required to
realise a new commission."
