As dusk falls over the East Midlands this weekend, the cities largest digital screens will play host to a moving canvas of films from regional and international artists. Trampoline, the regions innovative new media arts organisation, brings this first programme of artists shorts to the public screens of the East Midlands three cities, Nottingham, Derby and Leicester, as part of Trampolines 10th anniversary celebration, to taking place on November 29th at Broadway Cinema. These three programmes, The Citizen, These Four Walls and The Thousand Yard Stare operate to either draw the viewer into micro narratives or delicately play with their audiences experience of advertising. Trampoline has chosen short films, submitted from all over the world, that explore our relationship with the moving image in the public realm. Subtle interventions become interactions with the influx of dynamic digital signage and advertising to our high streets and public spaces. Do Billboards Dream of Electric Screens? endeavours to uncover the possibilities of this new digital infrastructure and how we perceive our developing surroundings. This is an opportunity to watch how cultural content can strengthen local identity and enrich city life. Whether its a brief escape to hinterland or simply mans best friend chomping on air, Do Billboards Dream of Electric Screens? will interact and enlighten as it lights up the three urban screens.
