FRINGEFEST 2006 --> call for entries (please forward) :-)

HEy HEY hey!

I want to you let you know that I am working on The
Silver Lake Film Festival / FRINGEFEST for 2006.
This is a film festival that is dedicated to showing
cutting edge work, sometimes out of left field,
but always interesting, and always worth checking out.

Anyways, along with my team-mates Saskia Wilson-Brown
and Joan Valencia, I am curating the Fringe Festival for the
SLFF this year. We are currently in the process of
finding artists, filmmakers and collaborators (for
lack of a better word). Our primary programs are

1. MP4: An exhibition for artists and film or video
makers who create narrative and experimental projects
to be viewed on Sony’s Play Station Portable (PSP)
consoles. Projects will be accessible in downloadable
form from a website, as well as being available for
viewing at various PSP stations in the Film Festival
space itself.

2. Open Architecture: you know how David Byrne took
Powerpoint and turned it into an art medium? Well
we're looking for people who do this type of work, who
re-configure programming and digital architectures
into creative tools. An exhibition for digital
projects by artists and designers working with
Dreamweaver, Flash, MAX/Jitter, Microsoft Powerpoint
and Excel, 3-D modeling software, and/or embedded and
hot programmable digital video media. The selected
works will be presented online, and in “real-space” on
flat-screen monitors.

3. Green Fest: Short work about alternate
transportations, technology, the handmade, extended
family, and similar social, technological and
political frameworks. Also seeking shorts about
virtual, biological and nano-technology, artificial
intelligence or other scientific movements that will
bring global and ecological democracy to the planet.

And then, of course, it's not too late to submit to
the festival itself. Find out more at:

So email me back if you have any ideas or want a call
for artists for any of the elements mentioned above,
and please spread the word! :-)

Cheers,
dave
