THEHOST.IS is a new residency programme by Kampnagel and Deichtorhallen Hamburg for the development of new (digital) approaches in artistic production - along critical questioning of hegemonic orders in code, decolonial strategies, digital resistance, self-empowerment and the democratisation of digital systems. The first three-month season under the title HOW TO BEAM - DIY TELEPORTATION FOR HYBRID TIMES is led and thematically shaped by the Canadian media and sound artist Darsha Hewitt; the artists Olsen, Nadja Buttendorf and Dasha Ilina are invited as residents. The residency programme is accompanied by a meet-up series and workshops, initiated in cooperation with the Hamburg curator Jeanne Charlotte Vogt. Over drinks and snacks, the residency artists, Hamburg artists and creatives will present their work and give a behind-the-scenes insight into their artistic research and critical practice with technology.
