The Department of Film, Video, and New Media at the School of the Art
Institute of Chicago invites applications from artists working in video to
teach and expand an innovative curriculum in moving image media. We are
looking for artists who work with various applications of video/digital
media, experimental narrative and non-fiction forms, installation, video
performance, interactive environments and web-based work. Candidates
should have a strong conceptual and historical grasp of contemporary
issues in the intersecting worlds of independent video production,
experimental filmmaking, and new media. The department is committed to
alternative forms and practices that emphasize experimentation,
innovation, and the hybridization of existing media and modes of
presentation. Candidates should demonstrate the ability and desire to
participate in curricular initiatives; should be able to work with
undergraduate and graduate students in an interdisciplinary, fine arts
context; and should have advanced proficiency in one or more areas of the
media arts. Applicants must have an active professional creative practice.
Teaching experience preferred. The position is full-time, tenure-track
and begins in the fall of 2006. Rank and salary are commensurate with
experience.
Please send a letter of application, curriculum vitae, artist's statement,
teaching philosophy, portfolio samples which may include CD-Rom, DVD, VHS,
mini-DV, and/or website URLs, names and contact information for three
references, and an SASE (if you wish to have the materials returned) by
November 15, 2005 for priority consideration to:
