We invite all filmmakers, media people, and artists to

Dance On Screen 2006, London
Deadline: 21 July 2006
Mon 30 October - Sun 5 November 2006
Whether you are a filmmaker or film aficionado, Dance
on Screen – the UK’s premier dance film festival – is
your opportunity to see the best in dance film, and
join a forum for new and established artists to
express and share their vision.
The Dance on Screen festival was established in
1995, in response to a growing trend for dance
artists to create work for film, and for filmmakers to
experiment with movement. The festival has grown in
size as the artform has flourished. In 2004 Dance on
Screen presented over 50 short and feature-length
films from around the world, alongside talks and a
masterclass. We took a break in 2005, and are
looking forward to an exciting festival this year.

(FUTURE PERFECT)
The future perfect is used to describe an event that
has not yet happened but is expected or planned to
happen.
"Think of it. We are blessed with technology that
would be indescribable to our forefathers. We have
the wherewithal, the know-it-all to feed everybody,
clothe everybody, and give every human on Earth a
chance. We know now what we could never have
known before -- that we now have the option for all
humanity to make it successfully on this planet in this
lifetime. Whether it is to be Utopia or Oblivion will be
a touch-and-go relay race right up to the final
moment."

V1B3 Summer06
DEADLINE : July 7th 2006
V1B3 is requesting submissions of short videos* that
in the broadest terms possible, explore public space
though human interaction, intervention and the
mechanisms that influence and control the experience
of the city.
V1B3 is an international curatorial project that aims
to present video art that responds to the conditions
of site specificity and a public viewer-ship. Urban
planners and architects are used to shaping cities by
means of infrastructure, zoning and buildings.
However, other modes of intervention exist that are
capable of influencing the development of a city.
Communicative media interventions can transform
public spaces.
V1B3 Summer06 will be presented in conjunction with
the University Film and Video Association conference,
sponsored by Chapman University in Orange,
California. The US screening will occur during the
UFVA conference [August 1ST-5th] in Orange, CA.
The UK screening will be held at the London Study
Center.
V1B3 Summer06 will have a companion DVD
developed for publication and purchase.
