Callout: In the Mix (Live Video Mixing!)

In the Mix
Call for Submissions

Due: 02.15.07

In the Mix is a gallery based performance series focused on live video
mixing and its improvised intersection with music. It will take place
August 24-26th, 2007 at the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art (MOCCA)
in Toronto, Canada.


The three-day series will feature:

* Live video mixing performances during the evenings.

* A curated program of short video works by artists working with live
video mixing as part of their artistic practice. Works that are
representative of each artist's approach to live mixing will be
displayed with audio in a separate viewing space as loops - each a
maximum length of 15 minutes.

* An audio/video midi-drum-circle open to public participation in the
daytime.


Interested artists need not have formal artistic training or come from
the contemporary arts community. Clubbers, scientists, bedroom-based
independents, commercial media makers, collectives and interactive
audio/video groups, all will be appraised from an open and curious
perspective!

If you would like to be considered for this series, please submit a
short video (15 minutes or less) on VCD, DVD, VHS or MiniDV, or on CD
(quicktime movie format), along with a completed submission form. The
submitted piece should either be a live recording of a section of a
video mix or strongly representative of your live work.
