yep. I did ask some Austrians I know :) another thing is the Swiss Pro Helvetia fund. It seems that any who did study some time there can apply. And I see they were partners with the previous convention.
I will get in touch with them too, but anybody knows how did that work in the past?
cheers alex

Here's the re-usable chunks of the grant I just submitted to the
Jerome Foundation, please use it however you see fit:
Statement of Trip Purpose
I will go to Brazil to attend a conference and meet with local artists
to further explore the relationship between art and software tools as
seen from the perspective of Brazilian artists, as well as to share my
ideas and experience with them.
- Detail of Trip Purpose
Software has given us extraordinary powers in the creative realm, more
and more artists are working with software as their primary tools for
their art. Much software is proprietary and unchangeable, Adobe
Photoshop is a good tool, but its owner cannot modify it. This is a
dangerous trend, separating the artist from her tools. No one can
prevent you from modifying your paints, brushes, chisels or other
traditional tools, we should expect the same from software tools.
Free, open source software provides such a tool, with an additional
advantage that the modifications can be directly shared. The beauty
of software is that these changes can be easily shared and reshaped to
fit other people's needs. Previously, artists could discuss how they
tailored their chisels and brushes, now they can freely share the tool
itself: the software they use and modify.
I am an active computer musician and media arts practitioner as well
as an active developer of computer music and media arts software. In
particular, I spend most of my time working on Pure Data (aka Pd) in
the realm of sound art and design, as well as some composition. I
have been involved in Pd development since 2000 and am currently the
most active developer. In my composition Solitude, I not only used Pd
as the tool to compose with, I also built my compositional environment
and even the score using Pd, and in the process contributed some
improvements to the core itself.
Pd is a tool that inspires many people to modify it and customize it,
much like a sculptor's chisel or a painter's brush is modified to suit
their needs. Artists using Pd are free to use, read, and modify the
source code that creates the program itself for whatever they choose
to do. This process has always been a central force in the direction
that Pd has gone. It has born out of a composition, and has always
been a tool that its users take ownership over, and shape the tool to
their artistic desires.
The main Pd community is mostly involved in academic computer music
and experimental electronic music. While this community is often in
contact via the english-language mailing lists and forums, there are
more and more communities of artists built around Pd who do not
participate in the english forums, for whatever reasons. They also
have come from completely different artistic backgrounds. Brazil, for
example, has some very active communities who communicate mostly in
portuguese, and most often in face-to-face meetings. By travelling to
Brazil, I can attend the main Pd conference, but also I will be able
to participate in these local meetings, and see how this distinct
community is creating music and art with Pd, and how they are shaping
the tool to their needs and desires.

afaik, they primarily support people, that are either swiss or working/living in switzerland [1]. since i hadn't anything to do directly with 'pro helvetia' for the pd-con07, i wonder as well, what kind of cooperation they agreed to participate for the last convention. since they supported the last convention, we definitely should try it again.
@alx1: how did you get funds from pro helvetia in 2007?
i don't have something to present (or know something to work on), so i cannot apply for grants myself. if there is another how i could help you raise funds, please let me know.
