Netmage 04
Creative and innovative images in art, media, communication
4th edition -  Bologna  Italy  21-24 January  2004
produced by Xing


Applications for the International Live Media Floor section of Netmage 
are now open. Netmage will take place in Bologna from the 21st to the 
24th January 2004.

With this next edition we want to reinforce the presence of Netmage as 
an international meeting point dedicated to Live Media: a series of 
performance practices that use, and integrate, audio-visual devices 
(digital, electronic, cinematographic, technological, pre technological 
etc.) to construct an active relationship with the audience.

With Netmage 03 it was introduced the term ‘Live Media’ to best 
describe the wide range of instruments and solutions that are used by 
artists, musicians, technicians and crews from vastly differing 
starting points: going beyond, though obviously not excluding, the 
forms of mixing sound and image that are covered by the term Vj’ing.

The Live Media Floor, as part of the festival’s programme of special 
events, workshops and conferences, is the heart of Netmage. It 
represents an international point of reference for the area of live 
media and Vj’ing; it is, above all, an instrument open to research, for 
the gathering of new productions and projects in the attempt to 
describe the contemporary aesthetic and audio-visual scene.

Abandoning the competitive mechanics of contests Netmage has turned 
instead to Live Media Floor, an open stage and gathering point for 
confrontation, meeting and confirmation between performers and audience.

The Live Media Floor is open to all comers who want to try their hand 
at the art of generating and/or mixing live sound and image in whatever 
shape or form.

The projects selected by the Festival’s artistic panel will make up the 
programme of events.

Material should be sent to:
Netmage, via cà Selvatica 4D, 40123 Bologna  Italy
No later than 10th November, 2003.
