In the contest of a meeting of Italian artists and poets against war in
Milan at the Mudima Foundation (an important and large exhibition space in
Milan, Italy) on
March 31, will be also presented a section of  international experimental
video,
videopoetry and computer animations, digital poetry slides, and digital
images, selected and curated by Caterina Davinio.
Who wants to submit materials to the curator can send them to the address of
Karenina.it Office (scroll down for this address).

Remember that:

1. Topic of the video/computer works must be: PEACE/AGAINST WAR.

2. Typology of the videos: only non narrative, experimental videos are
requested.
Performance or poetry readings simply recorded in video are not accepted:
accepted are videos experimental in the use of the video/computer language;
we are particularly interested in concrete/visual poetry developed in video
or in computer animation.
Also requested are works which utilize verbal language, literary text,
poetry, in the electronic media, not as simple superimposition, but in a new
grammar that coniugates text, electronics and visual aspects.

3. Length: most wanted 1-2 minutes videos, max 3-5 min.

4. Format: only videocassette VHS standard PAL
(we accept also files recorded on CD ROM, ONLY: short animated gif, avi,
mpeg - other files not accepted -, but they will be re-recorded on a
videocassette, for this reason works
on videocassette are preferred).

5. The work will not be returned, it can be used in future for cultural
purpose
in other no-profit manifestations/festivals/presentations.

6. Information about the selected works, and about eventual itinerant
developments, or future initiatives,  will be given only by the web site
Karenina.it (scroll down for the link).

7. Non selected works will not be returned.

8. Digital images of digital visual poetry are accepted ( jpg only, not
heavy), but we
are
not sure that space will be found for their presentation (probably yes).
