The site consists of windows situated at one end of a busy pedestrian bridge on the University of Washington campus. Thousands of UW students, faculty, staff, and members of the general public pass by the Henry each day. The Henry seeks to engage an artist or artist team to create a media art project that will be visually striking and attention-grabbing, arousing interest and curiosity in the Henry, and motivating people to enter the museum. Jurors will select the work that best meets this functional need and that exhibits a unique and captivating artistic vision.<img src="http://rhizome.org/syndicate/nothing.gif?f=announce" border="0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rhizome-announce/~4/N_XOaHrqmfI" height="1" width="1"/>
