The 2025 Technology Immersion Program (TIP) is a national program that offers American artists and legal US residents a 12 month professional development program for technical training in the creation of technology-based artworks and networking, performance and exhibition opportunities.
Applicants will receive extensive training with our expert instructors and participate in our workspace residency program including practice time in our lab, additional workshops and networking meetings with others in the program, our artists in residence, engineers, technical affiliates and interns. They will receive $2000 for attending the master classes with an additional budget for independent study and practice in the lab.

The TIP Program will award up to 6 full scholarships to media artists at any stage in their career who have a passion for learning the tools of digital media but do not have the research, training and equipment necessary to produce artworks in this medium. Women, BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ artists are encouraged to apply. The applicant must provide their own housing costs but some travel stipends may be available.
