The 'Open Web Award' is a new platform aimed at highlighting and promoting radical, creative and innovative art works and projects that: - are on the web and about the web - use open and free technology - incite participation and/or collaboration They can be critical, celebratory or both. Projects should have the potential to demonstrate and/or objectively critique the potential of open web issues, and those employing the creative use of HTML5 and other developing 'open' technologies will be given specific consideration. The point is to play with both the idea and materiality of the (open) web in ways that spark new thinking and practice. The winner(s) of the 'Open Web Award 2011' will receive a total prize of 5000 EUR, and be given the opportunity to have 'supported' status on Drumbeat <http://drumbeat.org/>. Beyond the specific 'Open Web Award' criteria, the same rules, conditions and application procedures apply as the 'transmediale Award 2011' <http://www.transmediale.de/en/awards2011> The Award competitions seek outstanding entries that exemplify visionary, adventurous and critical forms of digital expression, interaction, and collaborative practice. Entries from countries and regions in which digital art and culture are emergent are encouraged, as are positions that enrich our understanding of, and relationship to, technology and networked society. Jury of the transmediale and Open Web Award 2011 are Marisa Olson (New York), Matteo Pasquinelli (Amsterdam), Brandon Labelle (Berlin), Thomas Macho (Berlin), Defne Ayas (Shanghai), with a representative from the Drumbeat community joining the jury to select the final nominees for the Open Web Award Jury of Vilém Flusser Theory Award 2011 are Marcel René Marburger (Cologne), Nils Roeller (Zurich), Carolyn Guertin (Austin), Alex Galloway (New York) The Deadline for Entries to the 'transmediale Award', the 'Vilém Flusser Theory Award' and the new 'Open Web Award' is July 31, 2010 (2400 CEST / UST+2)!
