8 Bridges Workshop was the contracted researcher for the Arts and Technology Field Scan, a national research study conducted by the National Endowment for the Arts, in partnership with the Ford Foundation and the Knight Foundation. The study sought to better understand the work being created by U.S.-based artists who center technology in their practice, to study the support networks that help sustain their work, and to use this information to enlist arts funders and resource providers in both the public and private sector to expand support for this dynamic ecosystem. Dot Connector Studio was 8 Bridges’ partner in this work. The public facing report, artists’ case studies, bibliography, and other materials are available here.
