> interesting art; scientific innovations may follow.

> 2 Residency Locations and Schedules
> Both residencies are scheduled for summer 2004. Each company
> sets the exact dates. The first two weeks of these
> residencies will allow the artist to become acclimated to the
> company environment. The artist will have access to engineers
> and technicians and will (without specific goals) explore the
> technology available to them. The following weeks will be
> more intensive. Working closely together the corporate
> collaborators and the artist will design a specific project
> that will be completed by the end of the residency.
> * The Collaborative User Experience (CUE) Research Group
> at IBM Research/Cambridge residency is part of the IBM Watson
> Research Center. It takes place at their offices in Cambridge
> and will begin in June and go through August, lasting
> approximately three months. The exact duration will be
> negotiated between the chosen artist and CUE.
> * Plum Voice Portals in Boston's South End offers a
> residency consisting of two weeks on-site in June and two
> weeks on-site in August. In between the company encourages a
> virtual residency through email and the web.
>
> Qualified Applicants and Financial Support
> There is a $500 honorarium per artist and a $50 a day stipend
> for the actual days of on-site residency to cover
> transportation and daily expenses. This is open to artists
> from anywhere in the United States, but they are responsible
> for transportation, room and board if they do not live within
> the immediate vicinity. Beyond this $500 honorarium and the
