Lumen Prize Fund Jumps to $11,500


The 2015 Call for Entries for the Lumen Prize, the global award and tour for digital art, is now open. We are pleased to announce an improved prize fund of $11,500, including an exciting commission for the Welsh National Opera.

The WNO commission will go to the winner of Lumen’s first Performance Prize, for excellence in work which incorporates sound and movement digitally. The prize will be judged by WNO’s renowned Creative Director David Pountney.

We’re also thrilled to be partnering with Level 39 for this year’s Lumen Prize Creative Coding Award. Other specialist prizes this year – in addition to the top 3 awards – include prizes for Immersive Environments and Creative Still Image.

The 2015 winners will also see their work go around the world on our global tour to the US, Asia and Europe. To get started you can register here.
