On February 21, 2020, the international production prize HASH for
net-based projects in the fields of art, technology, and design
will be awarded for the second time at the ZKM | Center for Art
and Media Karlsruhe. The prize, endowed with 8,000 euros, was
founded by Akademie Schloss Solitude and ZKM and is sponsored by
the Stiftung Landesbank Baden-Württemberg.


Based on the hash value from information technology, which is
unique for each file and is used as a test value for data
transfer, the HASH stands for an outstanding project. The prize
will be awarded to one of the artists from the English-language
online support program Web Residencies for the years 2018/2019.


Conceived by invited curators, the Web Residencies’ open calls
addressed questions such as: What can we learn from machines and
how much do we depend on them in our lives and at work? How do
new care technologies relate to the crisis in caring for the
elderly and sick? With which technical innovations, hacks, or
open-source strategies can we counter the causes and effects of
climate change? What are today's scientific or technological
colonialisms? How could digital infrastructures that promote
opinion-forming and political debate look? What role do mobile
phones, actioncams, toy drones and social media live streaming
play in war, terrorism, hunting, and other forms of subjective
violence and their representation?


More than 1,200 artists, coders, designers, and scientists have
submitted project proposals for the six thematic calls for
2018/2019. Twenty-five of these ideas were awarded with Web
Residencies in which poetic, playful, as well as critical,
political, or utopian works were realized.


On February 21, the curators and artists will come together at
ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe to present the programs’
themes and questions to an interested public in talks,
presentations, and performances.
