The Device for Multimedia and Digital Artistic Creation
Founded in 2001 at the initiative of the Ministry of Culture, and managed by the Centre National du Cinéma et de l'Image Animée (CNC-IA), the support device for multimedia and digital artistic creation (DICRéAM) is the subject of an original institutional partnership between the CNC, the National Book Centre and the directorates of the Ministry of Culture. It encourages the development of artistic practices using digital technologies, which can have a collaborative, participatory, and especially transdisciplinary character, far from any academism.
The DICRéAM sees itself as a laboratory promoting dialogue between the different fields of contemporary creation (visual arts, living arts, literature, video games, etc.) through its support for projects that test the question of writing and digital uses. This device is a creation assistance. It is therefore not intended to support the development of a service application tool, a distribution platform or any other tool that does not involve the creation of an artistic work.
The DICRéAM proposes three distinct types of aid with different eligibility and award conditions: |
1) development aid : open to artists-authors and producers, it is intended to accompany the elaboration of an artistic work. This financial assistance is intended to support a unique artistic approach but also to enable choices to be made regarding the multimedia and technological tools envisaged for a future production.

2) production aid: open to producers, it is intended to accompany the realization of an artistic work for its first public presentation in its so-called final form. This financial assistance is intended to support a unique artistic approach but also to participate in the production of a work whose artistic, technical and technological elements have been decided upon and experimented with for the most part.

3) dissemination assistance: open to producers,it is intended to accompany a singular curatorial, editorial and/or programming proposal of a broadcast operation by a curator or an artist-Invited author to promote the public understanding and presentation of works that fall within the scope of DICRéAM. This financial assistance is intended to support the preparation of this dissemination operation, which may take a physical or digital form, upstream of its organization and its realization.
