The fellowships seek to support original research and curatorial experimentation within two main sound collections in the Netherlands: The Jaap Kunst Collection at the Universiteit van Amsterdam (UvA) and The Philips Omroep-Hollandse Indies radio broadcasts at the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision (NISV), or other repositories of source communities from Southeast Asia in Europe and repositories in Southeast Asia relevant to Re:Sound.
By focusing on sonic heritage, fellows will contribute to:
- Reclaiming marginalised historical narratives through sound by supporting Southeast Asian-led scholarship;
- Exploring the potential of digital and physical restitution to improve source community access to colonial sound archives;
- Promoting more inclusive, representative, and decolonial approaches to heritage curation.
Deadline 31 December 2025
