The deadline for Brown Institute Magic Grants and Fellowships is now FIVE DAYS away (March 8)! Recall these are funds that can support you for either a short term (like a summer) or for a longer project (like a year) for up to 150k. We are interested in the interplay between story and technology — perhaps creating a new platform for finding and telling stories, or telling a unique story in a new way.
At Columbia, to help you best formulate project proposals, we are offering 1-on-1 office hours. To attend a 1-on-1 slot, you must first submit a 1-2 paragraph project pitch to browninstitute@columbia.edu so that we can best help you refine your idea. These 30-minute slots will be held in the Brown Institute with both myself and with Michael Krisch, and are on a first-come basis. Make your request online at http://brwn.co/office-hours.
Lastly, if you have any questions about the process or a potential grant/fellowship, you can also email us at browninstitute@columbia.edu.
Good Luck!
