From aeaefda6843bc577e51f0548e3ef0c039c374649 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "prompt.ac/@jeffrey" Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 15:46:02 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?deadlines:=20four=20open=20calls=20F=C3=ADa=20s?= =?UTF-8?q?ent,=20and=20a=20funder=20we=20already=20know?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Fía sent four opportunities by iMessage between Sept 2 and Sept 16. None were tracked anywhere. They go into the canonical ledger: Sept 27 Matadero Madrid / Medialab — Situated Research 2027 (€10,000) Sept 30 A' Design Award — Digital Art (fee-based; verify the cost first) Oct 26 R2I Lab — Work//Shift Fellowship ($30,000) Oct 31 UCLA Asst. Professor of Art/Sculpture (for Fía, not AC) Work//Shift turns out to be run by the Center for Cultural Innovation — the same funder as CALI Futures, submitted Aug 28, decision due Nov 17. The CALI draft is substantially reusable, and CCI reads both of them. That note is recorded on the entry so it is not rediscovered later. Research and draft scaffolds for the two AC-facing calls live in the vault; draftPath links point at them. The scaffolds are labeled as scaffolds, not draft v0 — neither portal's real field structure has been captured yet, and the convention means something. grants/SCORE.md gets the two rows, and the same banner the vault copy already carries: the deadlines array is canonical, this file runs behind it. Three copies drifting silently is how the Sept 27 date gets missed.
