SHIFT InitiativeONEArmenia is calling for anyone in the world over the age of 16 to pitch a project under $10,000 that transforms an element of Armenian culture--be it ancient or contemporary--into a fresh, 21st century creation. There are no rules as to process or form; applicants should just want to shift Armenia's culture out of its traditional and historic space and make it the basis for an active, modern-day aesthetic. The winning project will be chosen by the online community in a single round of open voting via Facebook.
