There’s a lot of emphasis right now on “frontier models” with the race to AGI taking center stage, but certainly there are plenty of other frontiers worth exploring.

Emergent, overlooked, abandoned, barely perceptible or even hidden-in-plain-sight…these are the bounds where we will be pushing this summer at Stochastic Labs.

Program subgroups include: AI Creative Tools; The Future of Music and Sound; Computer Graphics, Animation, and Vfx; Tangible Imagination; Advanced Material Interfaces; and AI/ML Founders. We strongly encourage proposals that explore themes outside these areas as well (or invent new ones!)

Residencies include work space, housing (for those traveling from outside the bay area), and shop access. Residents participate in weekly lunches and dinners with the cohort and invited guests. Applicants may request funds to support travel and other expenses.

Dates: July 8th – September 15th (alternative dates may be possible)
