Dear netbehaviourists,

We would like to host a paid resident to explore algorithmic patterns.
Residencies are a chance to step away from your usual situation,
working in new surroundings, on a new topic, for a short period of
time. You can use the time to develop risky new ideas or develop an
existing project, with our support.

Algorithmic patterns can be found in a diverse range of heritage and
contemporary practices, prevalent in the performing arts and crafts.
They are marked by having structural systems based on simple rules
that when combined can produce works of astonishing complexity.
Examples include drafts in shaft weaving, site swaps in juggling and
teermana in Carnatic music, along with computer-based examples such as
bytebeat and bitfields in the demo scene, and pattern-based live
coding environments in electronic music performance. We hope this call
will reach all those interested in patterns, whether or not they use
computers in their work.
