BASE, a research centre for artistic research and arts-based philosophy, is located at a place with the perfect climate, in the Palani Hills at about 1,300 m above sea level, 14 km away from Kodaikanal, far away from the hectic of urban life-worlds, far away from any pressure of time and production constraints. In this special surrounding the 6 awardees are called to initiate artistic-philosophical processes, bringing dynamic forms of silence into play.
