| Cherry Kino/Leeds IFF Call for Submissions! Posted: 21 Sep 2011 04:16 AM PDT Submission to Cherry Kino at the Leeds International Film Festival is free, and now open! Cherry Kino is an independent wondermental film organisation (films that fill you with, and make you, wonder - an alternative term for 'experimental' or 'avant-garde') in Leeds, UK. In 2008, Cherry Kino founded the wondermental film strand of the Leeds International Film Festival, and we are delighted to announce that submissions are now open. Celebrating its 25th edition this November, Leeds IFF is the biggest regional festival of its kind in the UK, and welcomes in excess of 25,000 visitors. The popular 'festival pass' initiative means that as well as regular attendees of Cherry Kino events, the wondermental programmes attract a diverse range of audiences who are open to trying different things, leading to a vibrant, eclectic, and appreciative audience. Highly respected internationally, Leeds IFF is a public festival rather than an industry one, and we pride ourselves on this fact and on the adventurous nature of our audiences which enables the Programming Team to present such a diverse and original programme, year on year. Submission to Cherry Kino is FREE. Submitted works must have a completion date after January 2010. UK Premiere status is not an issue, and neither is film length. The deadline for submission is 30th September, and all applicants will be informed by 15th October. We are able to screen the following formats: Super8, 16mm, MiniDV, Digi-Beta, Beta SP, and HDCam. Please include with your submission: a short synopsis, running time, filmmaker, country, year of production, screening format. We look forward to the creative endeavour of experiencing your work and the structures that will emerge from it! Please send all entries, to arrive no later than 30th September, to: Cherry Kino c/o ESA Patrick Studios St Mary's Lane Leeds West Yorkshire LS9 7EH United Kingdom Warm regards, Cherry Kino http://www.leedsfilm.com http://www.cherrykino.blogspot.com |
| Leeds International Film Festival 2011 - Open call for experimental videos Posted: 21 Sep 2011 01:49 AM PDT I have been specially asked to curate a screening of experimental videos for the 25th Leeds International Film Festival in November in co-operation with the film lab/experimental film promoter Cherry Kino and so I am sending out an open call for entries! We are looking for works that fit within the term Destructural Video. Destructural Video is a revisionist term to describe the work of artists who aestheticize the exploration, investigation and exploitation of medium specific faults and flaws in electronic moving image technology. Taking inspiration from both early video art experiments and also the Structural film movement, these works expose the usually hidden signal and data structures of electronic media to startling effect. The following faults, methods of investigation and working techniques are of interest to us in the work we are wanting to screen: *Glitches *Drop outs *Digital artefacts *Electronic signal manipulation *Imperfect codecs *Static *Visual noise *Nth generation video damage *Circuit bent hardware *Data manipulation (e.g "datamoshing") *Faulty or unorthodox wire connections *Video feedback *Corrupt filetypes *Crashes *Synthesized images *Creative viruses *Synaesthesia (AV) experiments: audio video *Affected or broken videotapes, cameras, DVDs, laserdiscs, media players, computer programs, video games, televisions, games consoles etc. As well as hopefully screening a number of well-known artists working within this field, I am also looking for exciting, diverse and impressive videos by new, emerging or otherwise neglected artists working within the "destructural" aesthetic. Please spread this event amongst people who you think would be interested in submitting work! There are no submission fees and all lengths will be considered! We are able to screen the following formats: Super8, 16mm, MiniDV, Digi-Beta, Beta SP, and HDCam. As well as tape-based formats, we are also considering screening high-quality digital video files (potentially full HD) at this event too. All entries must be received before September 30th. Please send your work to the following address: Cherry Kino c/o ESA Patrick Studios St Mary's Lane Leeds West Yorkshire LS9 7EH UK Alternatively, send a download link to your work to jj.mcandrew AT gmail.com. Please include the following information with your entries: synopsis, running time, filmmaker, country, year of production, and screening format. All applicants will be informed of the festival's decision by no later than October 15th. The rough date for the screening will be November 17th - two days before the GLI.TC/H tour hits Birmingham! It's going to be an exciting month for this sort of work in the UK and we really hope you can attend this event too! John McAndrew http://www.facebook.com/DestructuralVideo The Leeds International Film Festival is the second largest film festival in the UK outside of London. Held in November at various venues throughout Leeds, West Yorkshire, it shows over 200 commerical and independent films from around the world. Cherry Kino is an independent DIY film organisation based in Leeds, UK. In 2008, Cherry Kino founded the wondermental film strand of the Leeds International Film Festival. As well as regularly organising screenings and visiting artist events, Cherry Kino also runs Super8 and 16mm film workshops open to the public and operates a DIY film lab in the UK. |

| Posted: 19 Sep 2011 09:02 PM PDT Debt is arguably the central economic and political issue of our times. Since the recession triggered by the crisis subprime mortgage crisis in 2008, political economists have spent much time bringing to light the arcane financial instruments (e.g. Collateralized Debt Obligations) that have driven the crisis. Yet relatively little attention has been paid to the questions which debt and credit raise for culture and everyday life. To address these key issues of our time, Social Text is publishing a dossier of essays on debt that builds on recent work by Michael Denning and the Yale Working Group on Globalization and Culture. Questions addressed in the dossier include the cultural meanings of debt in relation to the histories of migration, nation-building and state violence, to discourses around nature and intellectual exchange, as well as to the narrative structures that construct and reframe the meanings of debt in daily life. To deepen and extend this discussion, Social Text is issuing a call for visual works relating to the culture(s) of debt. Preference will be given to web videos of less than 5 minutes, though Social Text is also interested in other visual works that can be presented online, such as site-specific Internet based work, short photo essays with or without text, and image based documentation of works. Please direct submissions to editor@socialtextjournal.org by October 15, 2011. |
