Out of the Garage, Into the World takes as its overarching theme “Build Your Own World.” Its methodology is rooted in the ethos of garage hacking and “neighborhood science”—creating and inventing for the common good. Prior to the Biennial, from September 4-14, ZER01 is inviting a range of independent artists, designers, architects, engineers, programmers, and corporate and academic research programs to publicly work in San Jose’s “South Hall” to create projects which build on the dynamic histories of garage hacking and citizen science to imagine not just what’s next but to ensure that what’s next matters. The 01SJ Biennial, through Out of the Garage, Into the World, strives to build a place where the general public can observe and even participate in the process.
ZER01 is soliciting proposals from artists to create projects for participation, performance, and provocation as part of the Out of the Garage, Into the World program at the 2010 01SJ Biennial. The $5,000 commissioning fee must cover production, materials, travel, and lodging.
