View this email in your browser 48 DAYS UNTIL APPLICATIONS DEADLINE FOR THE TERRAFORMING 2022 Strelka Institute is excited to announce that we are accepting applications for The Terraforming 2022 program!  This year, The Terraforming is adding a new chapter of motivating research themes — Artificial Environments, Astropolitics, Synthetic/Spatial Materialism, Planetary Sapience. In addition to the core faculty, new invited experts from the worlds of architecture, science, engineering, philosophy and design will be joining the program, including Lydia Kallipoliti, Pascal Gagneux, Clapperton Chakanetsa Mavhunga, Tobias Rees, Christina Agapakis, Ken Goldberg, Venkatesh Rao, Fred Scharmen, David Delgado and others.  Read more about the program on our updated website. To guide you through the application process, we decided to highlight some of the most frequently asked questions: Q: What will be the format of The Terraforming 2022 program?  A: The team of The Terraforming is closely monitoring the epidemiological situation globally and the corresponding COVID-19 travel restrictions and regulations. As much as feasible we hope to prioritise offline collaboration between the participants in the coming year. The 2022 program will have a hybrid format. It will begin with an offline field-trip when the group will have a chance to meet in person, followed by 2 months of online seminars, and will end with an extensive design-push phase, which will take place offline in 1 location for the period of approximately 3 months. The program would require a full commitment from the participants for the entire period of 5 months. We will be making additional announcements on the format specifics in the coming months. We are committed to develop the best combination of online and in-person collaborations for the entire cohort that would provide a deep dive into The Terraforming research agenda and a unique and exciting experience for the researchers. Don’t hesitate to ask questions at ap...@strelka.com! Proceed with your application at apply.strelka.com. APPLY BY NOVEMBER 7 Design research program The Terraforming is a three-year (2020–2022) initiative of the Strelka Institute in Moscow.
