Radio Television Hong Kong is the only public broadcaster in Hong Kong.
We are planning a TV series featuring independent animators from all
over the world. The series will lead into an International Animation
Festival in mid July. We are sourcing outstanding animation work for
both the series and the festival at the moment. Hence, we would be
grateful if you could pass this message to students of the Animation
Dept.of California Institute of the Arts.
If anyone is interested in taking this opportunity to showcase their
work, they can send us a preview copy of their work (it can be more
than one) in DVD, CD ROM or VHS format. If their work is selected for
the TV
series, we will need them to send a broadcast standard copy
(Beta/DVCAM) of the work and an interview of themselves talking about
it. The series will be broadcast on TVB Pearl (a major English channel
in Hong Kong)
at 6.50 pm every Sunday starting from mid-April. This is a very good
time
slot and should be a wonderful platform for anyone who wishes to
showcase his or her own work. The festival, as said earlier, is the
culmination of the series. It is planning to be held at the Hong Kong
Arts Centre and will feature even
more animation works (not just short ones, but also feature-length
ones) from all over the world.
Being a non-profit making public broadcaster, we shall not be able to
pay any screening fees. If the work is chosen to be shown in the TV
series, we need an agreement from the author waiving any charges and
giving us the right to broadcast it once on the English Channel and
once on theChinese Channel.
As the TV series will be shown at prime-time the content should not be
of an extreme nature. The work submitted should also be accessible to
the general audience. Preferably, the films should be self-explanatory
without relying too much on language. If and when subtitling is needed,
we require a dialogue list. (This also applies to work submitted for
the festival.)
Should there be any inquiry, please feel free to contact Ms Cherie Ho
at hopy@rthk.org.hk or (852) 2992 9516.
Thanks for your kind attention. We look forward to hearing from you
soon.
Best Regards,
Cherie Ho

Call for Proposals: "Out of the Box [Net.Art and the 'Real World']"
Deadline: April 1, 2003
http://www.impakt.nl
No longer content with pure formalism and self-referentiality, and unwilling to be dismissed into the simple catagory of "graphic design", net.art is redefining itself in the realm of social critique and commentary. The old elements of hyperlink, the embedded images and sounds, the database and the live stream all remain in place, as do the digital pranks, parasitic spoofs and deliberate 'errors' which gave early net.art its timeliness and humour. Their scope, however, has been refocused and their use redefined in recent years to a razor-sharp critique of technological "progress", globalization, and the ever-present machinery of surveillance and control which the internet has helped to usher in.
Working from this position, the "Out of the Box" theme for the Impakt Online seeks to examine how technology and the internet manifest themselves on the human level by asking such questions as; where do such on-line concepts as navigation, avatar, or algorithm find their place in the "real world" outside the computer? And, similarly, how can such physical activities such as performance, protest, or love maintain their "real-ness" in a virtual environment? In short, we seek the point where real life affects the internet,and (more importantly) where the internet affects real life.
Impakt will commission two projects for this theme. The accepted commissions for this project will be invited to produce a hybrid project involving a website and a live, "real-world" intervention [performance, action, prank, interface, etc] which will take place during the Impakt Festival this coming spring, between June 3 and 10. Depending on the submissions we receive, we may invite the accepted artists to collaborate on a single project.
Because this is a commission for new works, previously exhibited projects will be immediately disqualified. However, as we realize the timeframe is somewhat short, we are happy to support projects already under development with an eye towards their premiere at the Impakt Festival 2003. Applicants are urged to submit their proposals early so that the editorial team has a chance to go over them and contact with artist with questions and suggestions.
Final Deadline: April 1, 2003
Launch: June, 2003
*Proposals must be written in English, and the project accessible to an English-speaking audience
*They should include a project description:
---description of content
---technical implementation
---time line
---relation to the theme
*They should also include an artist[s] biography:
---short CV
---documentation + URLs of previous projects
*Previously exhibited projects will be immediately disqualified
Impakt will provide webhosting for the project for 1 year, and pay a fee to the accepted artist[s] of EURO 1000. The winning commission[s] will also be invited to submit a budget for the live event which will take place during the festival.

To take part phone +44 (0) 7092009270 and leave your fuck you message.

C6 are Strategic artists using Tactical media interloping in your everyday. First hitting the headlines in 1998 with 'Man in a box' placing a member in a 7 foot by 7 foot wooden crate
for 7 days without food, under 24 hour light and surveillance constantly broadcast to the public using video and world wide web. Since then C6 have courted public, web and media responses with works ranging from the 'new media new arse' a series of web and stencil campaigns, to newmediaspy.com a phone fax and email invitation for the public to play in a contextualased secretive broadcast event. C6 have appeared on channel 4, ITV, BBC television and radio news programmes. Over the years C6 have drawn comment from all the british broadsheet papers.
As an Anger Management System (AMS) Fuck you is the collective assemblage of enunciation venting from the concrete machine.
Using profanity has never been new. Contentious voices rallied by emotive taboo words have been heard for many decades. The sensibilities of previous years have been dulled by the furore. However the word fuck is still seen as a useful stick to beat a call to indignation, tickle us with its humour or offend us with its violence.
C6’s AMS is a strategic media network creating connections and new layers of public cooperation and interaction. Fuck you, the automated response within the contextual fine art sausage machine.
Its so often the case of not what you say, but the way you say it.
The success of this project depends on you. You are vital in its production.
Go on phone +44 (0) 7092009270
Say fuck you

CALL FOR PAPERS : T h e S t a t e o f t h e R e a l
An Interdisciplinary Conference
Glasgow School of Art, UK
21-22 November 2003
Deadline for abstracts: 22 April 2003
Abstracts may be sent by email to real@gsa.ac.uk.
Keynote address: Prof. Linda Nochlin, New York University *
[* A second keynote speaker of high standing is currently being
approached.]
"How real can you get?"
The conference organisers propose a debate on the subject of
'the real' in aesthetic philosophy, criticism and practice.
"When is representation not real?"
Recent years have seen notions of reality discussed in the
open. What relationship do current views developed by this
discourse have with those tenets of realism and represent-
ation that once provided the foundation for aesthetic study?
What are the philosophical consequences of the introduction
of technologies that increasingly blur the boundaries between
art and popular culture? What is the effect of aesthetic culture
on Realpolitik?
What has happened to the notions of social realism, verisimil-
itude, and the imaginary? Are they still relevant, and how have
they been changed, if at all?
"Reclaiming the real."
The organizers are also interested in how notions of reality are
affected by, and continue to affect, aesthetic practice in the
fields of art, design, and media production. With the popularity
of haptic technologies, what has happened to ^real haptics?
How do practitioners and academics view older technologies
in the light of their electronic avatars? With the development
of notions of virtual space, what has happened to our
understanding of the body, the mind, and corporeal space?
The organisers particularly welcome proposals on, or dealing
with, the following related subjects:Reality and realism in Art &
Design History; New media technologies Virtual Reality, CGI
photography and cinema, the Internet, haptic technologies;
Modernity and Post-modernity/Modernism and Post-modernism;
Philosophies on ^the real in popular culture; Philosophy and
art/design and cultural practice; Reality television, realism in
film.
Proposals for panels (no more than three papers) and workshops
are also welcomed.
