HASH Award
The production prize of Akademie Schloss Solitude and ZKM | Karlsruhe
What are creative people working on on the net worldwide? Which topics move them? What are your questions? And what artistic answers do they give to developments in technology, society and the Internet?
The production prize »HASH« is awarded to an outstanding project of the »Web Residencies by Solitude & ZKM«. The title of the award is based on the hash value from information technology, which is unique for each file and is used as a verification value during data transfer.
The award for net-based projects in the fields of art, technology and design is presented every two years. In 2020, juror Nishant Shah chose the Web Residencies of Natasha Tontey and Pedro Oliveira. 2018 Dutch artist Marloes de Valk was selected by juror Marisa Olson.

Web Residencies by Akademie Schloss Solitude & ZKM
From virtual reality to artificial intelligence to surveillance technologies - three times a year, calls for proposals are developed with different focuses within the framework of the »Web Residencies«. The result is poetic as well as political, experimental as well as utopian works, mostly undecided between critique and optimism, reality and fiction. They show the tensions between technology and people, intervene in common narratives of the Internet and society or create space for the ideas of another future. They reflect the role of art and its institutions in the age of the web and digital (re)production.
The Web Residencies programme is supported by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts. The prize money for the »HASH« award is sponsored by the Landesbank Baden-Württemberg Foundation.
