Productive Counter-Production

June 19–July 2, 2016, Poor Farm on Vinalhaven, Maine

For its 2016 Residency DesignInquiry invites one dozen thinkers and makers to Vinalhaven to engage in some productive counter-production. We welcome applications for discrete, though not necessarily stand-alone, projects that can be substantially completed during the one or two week period of the residency. Your proposed project may be part of a larger research agenda or ongoing creative practice or it may represent a new direction in your work. In either case, we are interested in projects that upend, invert, or otherwise challenge traditional notions of productivity and procrastination as defined by your particular field or discipline.
