Un-monument: Augmented Reality Incubator

As part of "Un-monument | Re-monument | De-Monument: Transforming Boston,” we provided training opportunities in AR for artists who have traditionally faced an access gap in partnership with Emerson Contemporary.

Due to the novelty of the technology and the access barriers to getting started in making new media art, MOAC partnered with Emerson Contemporary to run an Art and Technology Incubator in the spring of 2024.

This incubator provided creative technology training for artists interested in expanding and diversifying their practices to help expand the pool of applicants for the commissions and diversity practitioners in the media art field. The workshops were supported by AR publishing platform Hoverlay, which provided free access to the artists to their content creation platform, and were taught by local AR Artist & Curator Michael Lewy.

We’ll be opening the 2025 Art and Technology Incubator application at the end of 2024. Follow us on social media and sign up for our newsletter to be the first to hear about upcoming opportunities!
