MEDEA IS HIRING AT MALMÖ UNIVERSITY, SWEDEN

Medea Collaborative Media Initiative is a center for new media research and development at Malmö University, Sweden. Medea is built around co-production with actors outside academia – companies, organizations, artists, citizens, etc. A special focus is put on the development of new creative practices and on new public spheres.

Currently, three full professors, four associate professors and six PhD students are employed in the two initial research areas of Medea and closely related activities. In two years' time, the plan is for Medea to comprise at least four major research areas and employ around 30 staff members and PhD students.

We are now looking to expand our faculty with a full professor. We also announce the opening of two programs for visiting colleagues of exceptional standing: An artist-in-residence program and an entrepreneur-in-residence program.

--------

Professor of New Media with a particular focus on new media and co- production.

The specific area of competence within new media is open (art, design, public spheres, learning, economy, law, etc.) -- in a way, we are looking forward to being surprised.

General criteria are scientific, collaborative and pedagogical expertise.

Application due on October 1, 2009.

Each artist is granted salary, accommodation and expenses for travelling to Malmö.
