+++ 1st Bio:Fiction Science, Art & Filmfestival +++
Call for entries
The 1st Bio:Fiction Science, Art & Filmfestival aims at attracting public
awareness to synthetic biology and its ramifications for our daily life in
the future.
Synthetic biology is the design and construction of new biological systems
not found in nature. Synthetic biology aims at creating new forms of life
for practical purposes. By applying engineering principles to biology
scientists will be able to design life forms much different from breeding or
traditional genetic engineering.
We want to encourage filmmakers to share their cinematic visions of a
present or future society shaped by synthetic biology. What is your view on
a world living with synthetic life forms? Your approach is up to you - the
filmmaker, scientists or artist - the entries can be on science, fiction, or
science fiction. We welcome regular short film, animation or documentary
film. The main criteria is that synthetic biology has to be reflected
somehow in the work, but how you do it is up to you.
Prizes will be awarded in the following categories:
Bio:Fiction Award - Short Fiction
Bio:Fiction Award - Documentary Film
Bio:Fiction Award - Animation
Online-Audience Award
Special Award of the Jury
(the prize money in each category will be announced soon)
On http://www.bio-fiction.com <http://www.bio-fiction.com/> you will find
more useful and inspiring information on synthetic biology, the entry form
and the regulations of the filmfestival.
The nominated films will be presented in public at the festival event in
Vienna, Austria, in May 2011. Finally, a Bio:Fiction Award ceremony will
build the highlight of the festival.
The deadline for film entries is the 15th of July 2010
There is no entry fee for submitting films.
