OPEN VIDEO PROJECTS for BLUEROOM
(Rome, Italy / New York, NY )
OPEN VIDEO PROJECTS
BLUEROOM
OPEN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Blueroom ( www.blue-room.it) is a collective dedicated to producing and
promoting all forms of media experimentation including electronic
music, video, sound art, and cinematic exploration. Blueroom organizes
a weekly evening of audio-visual interaction at Rialto Santambrogio, a
contemporary cultural center in Rome's historic district. Featuring a
dynamic mix of live experimental electronic music, a rotating DJ
line-up, live video-mixing, site-specific video installations and 3500
cm_ (a weekly exhibition of poster art specially designed by a
contemporary artist for free distribution at the event), Blueroom has
become a vital component of Roman nightlife. The overwhelming public
interest has brought an average weekly attendance of more than 800
guests.
For its upcoming season, Blueroom kicks off with a new program, Open
Video Projects. We are looking to develop an international network of
artists working with film and video. All artists working in these
media are invited to submit work to be part of Open Video Projects.
All submitted materials will be evaluated for inclusion however, only
selected pieces will be screened as part of the Blueroom evening.
Lorenzo Benedetti, Sarra Brill and Andrew Cappetta are responsible for
the selection of all video entries and will curate the weekly
selections. All submitted materials will be collected in a searchable
database, accessible on the program's website,
www.openvideoprojects.org In addition to the database, the site will
also feature a program guide, screening times, and links to the
websites of participating artists (if provided). The same information
will also be posted on the Blueroom site, www.blue-room.it.
GUIDELINES FOR SUBMITTING VIDEO-WORKS
