ICST Pre-PhD Program EARS 2024 - call for applications

The Institute for Computer Music and Sound Technology (ICST) at ZHdK offers a one-year program for emerging artists aiming to engage in practice-based research in areas related to sound and technology. The goal of the program is to conduct a practice-based pilot project, to develop a postgraduate research plan and finally to prepare an application to one of ZHdK’s artistic PhD cooperation (or other) programs.

Research at ICST combines scientific and artistic research topics and methods. ICST thus offers a lively environment for the development of a practice-oriented research project. EARS participants receive individual artistic and technical supervision from two ICST research assistants as well as further methodological support according to their individual needs.

Application deadline is 31 December 2023, the program starts in March 2023.
