CALL FOR ONLINE PROJECTS FOR WWW. MOSAICA.CA

Project Mosaica, a website devoted to contemporary Jewish culture online, is
seeking projects from individuals or groups on the theme of Jews and Diaspora:
Jewish Culture, Web Culture, New Culture. Once again, two 1,000 CAN $
production honoraria will be awarded to the successful candidates whose web
projects address the possibilities of the virtual diaspora with this theme.

well as contribute to an understanding of the multivalent nature, complexities,
significance and changes in meaning of Diaspora or transnationalism. The call

disciplines are welcomed.
All proposals must:

sustainable beyond implementation.

(Region 1 compatible ) featuring not more than 3 images or 5 minutes video per

* Proposals to be submitted in English or French, however we recognize that
other languages may play a role in the final project.

Innovative content and its adaptation to web aesthetics will be the primary
consideration in the selection process. Artists will maintain copyright of
their productions which will be disseminated by Mosaica on the site
www.mosaica.ca and presented at public talks and screening(s).Submission
material will not be returned.

Applications must be submitted by December 1, 2006
