University Residency
Each year, arebyte partners with a University’s new media course and invite their students to look into new forms of making, curating, displaying and archiving digital art. The residency culminates in a series of collaborative curatorial projects presenting new ways of thinking, and challenging the idea of what a gallery is and can offer.

““The residency with arebyte was an amazing experience to be a part of. It let me meet all sorts of people from the computing department and brought us together creating some interesting and fun work. The residency team are so supportive and welcoming they really make this opportunity special. If I had the opportunity like this again I wouldn’t hesitate to take part in it!””
