Applications have opened for (Algo|Afro) Futures 2025!
(Algo|Afro) Futures is a mentoring programme for early career UK-based Black artists who want to explore creative coding and live coding.
Live coding is a performative practice where artists and musicians use code to create live music and live visuals. This is often done at electronic dance music events called Algoraves, but live coding is a technique rather than a genre, and has also been applied to noise music, choreography, live cinema, and many other time-based artforms.
(Algo|Afro) Futures will take place between June - July at Vivid Projects and will consist of five workshops and a live performance in August.
Up to six participants will receive mentorship from Antonio Roberts @hellocatfood and Tyger Blue @tygerblue
Each participant is supported by an access bursary of up to £500.
This opportunity is open for Black UK-based artists only. The call is open from 10th April until 23:59 on 5th May BST.
