Residency applications are welcome from UK and international practitioners and should be for a minimum period of 3 weeks to maximum of 3 months. The Residency Programme is a new model of residency initiated and run by artists. It aims to provide a space for residents to research and develop new work in a supportive and collaborative environment. It provides an opportunity for Blast Theory artists and residents to work alongside each other exchanging information, experience, knowledge and working methodologies in an open and dynamic dialogue.

INTERN PROGRAMME for 2010. The placements are for a minimum of one month and a maximum of three months.

Blast Theory usually work with interns on specific projects in development and give clear areas of responsibility and focus. Like everyone else Blast Theory expect all interns to get their hands dirty and do all the boring day to day work from time to time. Interns become a part of the team in Blast Theory and we like working with people who are good at both working in a team and working independently, people who work hard and who have a keen eye for detail.

A small daily stipend is paid to interns to cover travel and other expenses.
