The artwork needs to be designed display at very high resolution and in daylight. The artist will also need to be able to realise their idea technically (with appropriate advice and support from the MIX DIGITAL team).
Details of how to apply, along with a full list of requirements, technical specifications, eligibility criteria and budgets are available on the MIX DIGITAL 3 site.
