Announcement: 0x Salon Residencies at Trust ‘23
Deadline for applications: 14th April ‘23 23:59 CEST [Application Form]
We are pleased to announce that 0x Salon and Trust are soliciting applications for five Research Residency positions in Berlin, to take place over the remainder of 2023.
Research Residencies
These Residencies are flexible, part-time roles commencing May’23 onwards for a duration of 3 months with the possibility of continuation afterwards. A stipend will be provided at a rate of EUR15 per hour for 50 hours per month. Residents will also become members of the Trust workspace and online community, with access to deskspace, community events. The 0x Salon team will provide mentorship, technical & logistical support and access to studio/workshop facilities.
We are prioritising applicants from under-represented backgrounds. Though we would prefer Residents to be based in Berlin to make the most of our local facilities and networks, we are open to applications from elsewhere.
The specific activities undertaken by Residents will be tailored to individual interests and expertise. The Residents will have access to: the Trust workspace, our collective studio/workshop facilities, and the private 0x Salon digital archive. As part of the program, Residents can work on new or existing creative & scholarly projects, propose new research & discussion topics, co-organise upcoming events, and participate in community and external collaborations.
Some ideas for Residency projects:
New creative and scholarly research projects
Developing new & existing salon event formats: offline, online, hybrid, and/or augmented environments.
New public and discord event formats in collaboration with Trust e.g. livestreams, play-throughs, reading groups, sandbox sessions.
Mini-salons facilitated by the Fau0x Salon card game.
Refining existing projects and output formats, formulating new output types, improving output legibility and dissemination.
Deadline for applications 14th April 23:59 CEST [Short Application Form]

About the 0x Salon & Trust
0x Salon is a para-institutional community of researchers and creatives incubated by and operating within Trust. The two organisations share many topics of interest, projects, and colleagues. Trust has provided continued support to 0x Salon’s events program, and the 0x Salon team meets in Trust’s Berlin workspace, where the residencies will take place.
As an explicitly collective endeavour, 0x Salon critically interrogates digital culture through discourse events and residencies, producing scholarly and creative interventions in the process. Since 2020, we have been hosting salons — intimate post-disciplinary discussions — on a range of conversation topics. We are conducting an ongoing, non-profit experiment in knowledge sharing and collective cultural production. Stewarded by 0x Salon team members, our community researches topics, organises events, and produces lore, critical theory, poetry, philosophy, games, theatre, and visual art.
Trust is a network of utopian conspirators, a sandbox for their creative, technical and critical projects, and a site of experimentation for new ways of learning together.
We gratefully acknowledge funding and support for these residencies from friends of the salon and Trust.
