In addition, LiveBox has an open call for “Subtitles” - a yearlong exploration of projects inspired by literature. Each 3rd Friday, hosted by ThreeWalls, will be unique combination of media, performance and readings. We are looking for video, new media, sonic and sound, performance, and literary work inspired by or evoking the writings of Edgar Allen Poe, Doris Lessing and Roald Dahl.
