Too Much Freedom?
LA Freewaves 10th Celebration of Experimental Media Arts
Institutions have historically struggled to find a balance between
the
expressive rights of the individual and the innate desire for societal
stability. Throughout modern history, artists have been in the forefront
of those dialogues.
Freewaves 10th festival re-examines freedom and its consequences
with film,
video and new media exploring a multiplicity of cultural values,
including
artistic invention, political experience and human need.
The showcase will present experimental media art from around the world
at art venues in Los Angeles in November 2006 and through the Freewaves
web site. Media art works include experimental video and film (narrative,
documentary, art, animation, etc.), DVDs, web sites, simple installations,
and video billboards. Works from the festival will also appear on public
television, cable stations and video-streamed on the Internet. Competitive
selection process will be conducted by a group of international and
local curators with diverse specialties and backgrounds. Notification
of acceptance is in July 2006. Artists will be paid $200 for selected
works. |
