I heard from the publicist: Applications are still being accepted. The two people listed as having been chosen for 2012-13 are the people chosen for 2011-12. Quite a typo, eh? In answer to your second question, Phil, there'll be one residency in each city.
Good questions, Simon & Baker and Phil. I contacted the media rep an hour ago, and as soon as she gets an explanation of that inconsistency on the website, I'll let you know.
