The4thScreen: a global fest of art and innovation
for mobile phones, New York
Deadline : June 4, 2006
The4thScreen: a global festival of art & innovation
for mobile phones launches today with a call for
works. Ten awards of US $5,000 will be given to
winning entries.
The4thScreen festival is the first event of its kind to
focus on the mobile phone as an emerging social,
cultural and technological phenomenon.
The festival was conceived by Tamas Banovich,
curator and co-director of Postmasters Projects and
Postmasters Gallery in New York:
"We are at the moment when everybody, from the
media moguls to Vietnamese peasants - artists,
hackers, activists, businesses and governments, are
trying to grasp the impact, the power, of this new
phenomenon.... trying to claim a part of it. There is
still a lot of space for great ideas, to fulfill dreams
and real needs. I hope the Festival will serve as a
catalyst and influence this process..."
Artists, movie makers, designers, technologists,
programmers, game designers and all creative
thinkers are invited to submit their creations,
inventions and revolutionary ideas in one of two
categories:
Moving images- including videos, animations, and
games made specifically for mobile delivery
Wise technologies - including SMS based projects,
sound, software art, software and hardware projects
proposing new or extended use of mobile devices,
applications that impact the life, the cultural, social
and economical conditions of people living in diverse
cultures.
The mobile phone is at the center of a radical
cultural, technological, and social shift. The4thScreen
is a platform for those who are shaping the present
and want to influence the future of this new medium,
exchanging ideas over the boundaries of cultures, to
participate in the global village.
The4thScreen festival'06 is produced by Postmasters
Productions in partnership with the Museum of the
Moving Image and Polytechnic University, New
York.
