Media Arts + Technology Residency – Call for Applications
Video Pool Media Arts Centre is pleased to announce our upcoming Media Art + Technology Residency (MATR).
The theme for MATR this year will be (de)PRESS(i)ON, and is a part of a year-long program celebrating and exploring VP’s 40th anniversary, what we are referring to as our Mid-life Crisis™. The VP mid-life crisis™ series will feature programs from the six stages of a typical mid-life crisis: Denial, Passion; Replay, Depression, Withdrawal, and Acceptance.
For MATR, we are asking artists to “Press On” with us… to persist, continue and to advance technology-based art while delving into the past 4 decades of VP history.

Commissioned by the Max-Planck Institute for Empirical Aesthetics (Frankfurt, DE).
Ă–rjan Sandred and Max Sandred | Sonic Trails: Lockdown
“Sonic Trails : Lockdown” is a multimedia installation reflecting on a city in Covid-19 lockdown. Using algorithms for Artificial Intelligence, a visitor is transferred between concrete and abstract experiences in a 3-dimensional world created through projections on semi-transparent screens and a multi-channel loudspeaker system. The installation is created by Max and Örjan Sandred and is based on material recorded during the 2021 pandemic in Winnipeg.
Erin Laye on Azimuth Nitehi
We are all just particles, drifting this way and that, with no clear place to go. In the installation “Azimuth Nitehi” you begin to embody the void and explore the outer reaches of a universe reminiscent of the milky way. The difference between our galaxy and this one is that the cold vacuum of space that we are familiar with, has become illuminated and brought to life by the particles within it. Enter this augmented reality where you are your heartbeat, and the average sum of all of the heartbeats around you. The inward force that connects you to the rest of humanity is brought outward.
Azimuth Nitehi | Dallas Flett Wapash + Taylor McArthur
Commissioned by VP during the pandemic, the dynamic duo of Dallas + Taylor developed Azimuth Nitehi, a combination of Nakota and Swampy Cree that roughly translates to “Moving Hearts.”
Azimuth Nitehi is an online experience being launched on November 5th and brought to life in exhibition form in Poolside Gallery.
