On the face of it, this opportunity looks great - paid artist-in-residencies at the Max Planck institute!
e-recruiting.pro/jobposting/56…
€8k seems like a good fee, until you notice that it's for four months. That's a bit less than minimum wage (€2080) in Germany. I don't know if that's taxable, but even if it isn't it still doesn't seem great when it seems they're looking for an artist with an established practice, to collaborate with people probably earning much more.
That said it looks fantastic compared with Goldsmiths in London - they have a similar four-month residence with no artist fee at all, apart from £250 per month to cover costs. arebyte.com/digital-art-reside…
It seems researchers are provided with space in order to do their work, but artists should accept the offer of 'free space' as payment for doing the work that they do in it. I just don't understand this...
In most people's reality though, art is hard work and is generally a search for meaning rather than happiness.

FBI informant who lied about Biden 'bribes' pleads guilty
A former informant has pleaded guilty to lying to the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) about a fake bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.Alexander Smirnov, 44, also admitted tax evasion after not reporting more than $2m (£1.58m) in income.
His claims became the basis of an impeachment investigation in Congress which centred around the false claims that the Bidens made millions in bribes from Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company.
But Smirnov admitted he made the story up, and pleaded guilty in Los Angeles on Monday as part of an agreement with prosecutors.
