  • Games
  • Information visualization
  • Illustration
  • Drawing
  • Painting
  • Sculptural forms or materials

At the Open House, we will be announcing a residency program at HEMI for an artist or designer for Fall 2015 semester. This proposal-based opportunity encourages JHU and MICA faculty to team together to explore new approaches and provide new perspectives to HEMI-related research and themes.

The event is free, but registration, providing some basic information and images, is expected by April 6, 2015. The registration data will be available to participants at the Open House to support collaboration and shared dialog at the event. Any submissions after April 6th will not be included in the Open House.

Images and information submitted  at registration will be used for display and a program distributed at the event as well as for publicity surrounding the Open House.
