In the Mix
Call for Submissions
Due: 02.15.07
"In the Mix" is a gallery based performance series focused on live video mixing and its improvised
intersection with music. It will take place August 24-26th, 2007 at the Museum of Contemporary
Canadian Art (MOCCA) in Toronto, Canada.
The three day series will feature:
Live video mixing performances during the evenings
A curated program of short video works by artists working with live video mixing as part of their artistic practice (works that are representative of each artist’s approach to live mixing will be displayed with audio in a separate viewing space as loops - each a maximum length of 15 minutes).
An audio/video midi-drum-circle open to public participation in the daytime .
Interested artists need not have formal artistic training or come from the contemporary arts community. Clubbers, scientists, bedroom-based independents, commercial media makers, collectives and interactive audio/video groups...all will be appraised from an open and curious perspective!
If you are interested in being considered for this series, please submit a short video piece
(15 minutes or less) on CD, DVD, VHS or MiniDV, along with the included submission form. The
submitted piece should either be a live recording of a section of a video mix or strongly representative of your live work.
Please email a completed Submission Form, available for download at the link below,
and all other required documents to: mashdownmedia@gmail.com. Mail your well-labeled
submission, along with a self-addressed stamped envelope if you would like your work returned, to:
