Summary

In the German media landscape, the “Close Encounters 11” project with Jana Kerima Stolzer as the central instigator and innovator for the media concept stands out. The company has introduced new structures to modernize the industry and promote new media funding offers for projects and fellows in the market. At the same time, the opportunity was created to receive funding and support for further projects in 2026 by expiring the deadline for the media art fund. This allows creative teams to further outsource their ideas and invent new forms of expression, especially in terms of audiovisual content and digital interfaces. The cooperation with the “Job” brand and the funding through the “support programs” create new opportunities for media art, technology and creativity in the future. The initiative helps to sustainably educate the media market and ensure that new generations can successfully shape media work. The focus remains on a creative mix of tradition and modern technology.
