Microwave International New Media Arts Festival 2007 

Open call for Proposal on Project Room

Based in Hong Kong, the annual Microwave International New Media Arts
Festival is a pioneering festival of its kind, both in Asia and
internationally. The theme of this years festival is LUMINOUS ECHO
 an attempt to display works of public interest that explore the
relationship between sound and light, with an emphasis to break down
the barrier between man and machine, and heighten the interactivity
between people and electronic media art. The Festival will run from
10 - 18 November 2007.

Microwave Project Room is a new initiative to seek open submission
from field artists as well as nominations from tertiary media-art
institutions. It is our goal to encourage artists and students to
make new attempts, and maintain a highly experimental spirit in art
production via exchanges, discussion and exhibition. As a highlight
of this project, we will request the artist to disclose the creative
process of the artwork, which will be shared in some form with the
public. 

Project Room installations will be exhibited in the Hong Kong Film
Archive exhibition hall from 10  18 November 2007.
