As an interdisciplinary performance company experimenting with multiple media/arts processes, AlienNation Co. offers residencies and workshops to extend their work and rehearsal methods into communities, arts organizations, and schools, and to create spaces for the exchange of creative ideas and cultural experiences. Such residencies are designed for community artists or college and high school performing arts departments in ways that stimulate and activate interchange between expressive culture, media/communication, and writing/performance composition, with a special focus on the integration of live art and video/photography/computer and editing technologies.

The ensemble and its design and media collaborators examine the process of creating intermedia art/performance through workshops, rehearsals, lectures, screenings, and demonstrations. The company's fee is negotiable, depending on length of the residency and the number of company participants.
