ASU-Leonardo and the Center for Science and the Imagination (CSI) are
proud to announce the Leonardo Imagination Fellowship Program in fall
2020. Fellows selected to participate in this prototype season of the
fellowship will join a virtual program to explore experimental
ArtScience innovation practices, across multiple publishing and
broadcast media platforms, that imagine a regenerative, vibrant global
future for all.

Fellows will propose and carry out hybrid creative projects and
activities that integrate art & science for positive global impact
(spanning local to planetary scope) aligned with the United Nations
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We will support experimental
work, especially across new and emerging media or publishing, to model
new ways that ArtScience can advance resilience, justice, empathy,
cooperation, generosity, trust, and other qualities that make social
systems and digital culture more human and more humane. Through the
fellowship we hope not just to advance individual projects but also to
support collaborations that connect diverse communities of practice
and interest as well as the existing networks of Leonardo and CSI
together for dialog, engagement, and empowerment.

The inaugural Fellowship Program will offer up to three virtual
fellowships, beginning in October 2020, for a duration of 8 weeks.

Each Leonardo Imagination Fellow will:

Be recognized across ASU-Leonardo, CSI, Leonardo/ISAST, and related platforms

Receive up to US$1,000 stipend as cash honorarium

Receive up to US$1,000 additionally, in support of direct expenses

Receive technical assistance from ASU to develop and complete their work

Receive access to Leonardo archives and ASU academic resources in
pursuit of scholarly research and creative practice

Participate in a co-created Leo Mentor Matrix, identifying 1–2
mentors, 1–2 peers, and 1–2 protégés with whom they will engage
throughout their fellowship

Lead an ASU LASER (Leonardo Art Science Evening Rendezvous) event
featuring a presentation they offer, and another by a presenter whom
they will select & invite

Share their Statement of Intent to be disseminated across ASU-Leonardo
& CSI network

Produce two Fellowship pieces (statement, creative work, research
documentation, digital media, immersive experience, etc.) to be shared
midway through the fellowship period as a work-in-progress/process,
and at the end as a culmination of the Fellowship

Participate in special and ongoing events and activities of ASU-Leonardo and CSI

Commit 2-4 hours per week throughout the duration of the fellowship
for collaborative meetings and activities where the fellows can engage
with one another and the Leonardo and CSI networks, and additional
time for self-directed project work

Fellowships support diversity, equity, and inclusivity in ArtScience
creative practice and scholarly inquiry that amplify voices of
underrepresented talent, including but not limited to people
overcoming or living with experiences of forced migration, exile,
systemic racism, incarceration, discrimination, disability,
marginalization, environmental justice, and other vulnerable
circumstances. Priority consideration will be given to fellowships
promoting social justice, antiracism, inclusion of underrepresented
genders, and equity through dismantling systemic social injustice and
humanizing digital culture.

Who Is Eligible?

Applicants must be 18 years of age and must have completed an
undergraduate degree or comparable life learning experience. This
opportunity is open to people in any nation or territory worldwide.

Note: Current ASU students, faculty, and staff are welcome to apply,
but payment of the cash honorarium will need to be coordinated with
your current department, and may be subject to change or postponement
because of ASU policies.
