Calling all artists, filmmakers, performers, walkers, runners, anti-runners, sceptics and those allergic to exercise and everyone else from all walks of life:
Hello. My name is Kai and I am an artist and PhD grad from the Slade. I would like to invite you to join us at the inaugural Run Run Run: A Festival Of Running 1.0. <http://kaisyngtan.com/2014/03/r3fest/> We are calling for 8-minute papers, artworks, activities, participation (deadline 20 April). I am also curating an exhibition entitled 'Running London' and am looking for artworks. One of the aims of the Festival is to show that running - just like the cultural tradition of walking that you may be familiar with - can be creative and can have mileage as a subject matter and creative methodology. Feel free to spread this CfP to your colleagues, friends and students. It will be great if you could join us - via Skype even, if you cannot physically swing by - in this party. Thank you.
