Germany’s HFBK University of Fine Arts is offering a $1,900 scholarship to three people if they can come up with a good reason to do nothing. This scholarship was created by a professor to encourage students to strive for “a lack of consequences” over success.
To apply, students must answer four questions:
- What do you want not to do?
- How long do you want not to do it for?
- Why is it important not to do this particular thing?
- Why are you the right person not to do it?
The three winners will not only get the scholarship but have their piece featured at the school’s exhibition “The School of Inconsequentiality: Exercises for a Different Life.”
Submissions are open until September 15.
