About the foundation
Les Antípodes is an international residency program that supports research and creation at the intersection of language, technology, and contemporary art. Founded with a commitment to fostering critical engagement with emerging digital cultures, the residency provides artists, writers, and researchers with the time and space to develop projects that interrogate the evolving relationship between human expression and artificial intelligence. The program is distinguished by its focus on the poetic and political dimensions of language in the age of AI, encouraging participants to explore how machine learning, natural language processing, and algorithmic mediation reshape our understanding of authorship, translation, and meaning-making. By situating itself within a broader European and global network of residencies, Les Antípodes cultivates a community of practice that is both intellectually rigorous and materially supportive.
