HYPERTRIBES - PUBLIC ART COMMISSIONS for the LOVEBYTES FESTIVAL 1998

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
The Lovebytes Digital Arts Festival invites proposals for multimedia art
installations to form a ground breaking exhibition of public art in
Sheffield's city centre.

Four new works will be commissioned for HyperTribes and shown for six/seven
weeks at sites in Sheffield city centre. Artists may use any combination of
video, sound and light incorporating multimedia computers and disc based
media, video projectors, cameras, monitors, touch screens, loudspeakers,
telecommunications, internet connections, programmable lasers and
triggering devices such as sensors and proximity detectors.

THEME
HyperTribes invites artists to consider modern day tribes and territories.
We are particularly interested in commissioning work which explores and
celebrates cultural diversity, representing the perspectives of alternative
lifestyles and communities.

Proposals are encouraged from individuals, groups of artists and
collaborations between artists and media practitioners, designers,
musicians, crafts people and/or computer programmers.

DEADLINE 22nd AUGUST 1997. Photos of proposed sites, budgets and
application forms are available on our website
http://www.lovebyte.org.uk/HyperWeb/HyperTrib.html We can also email this
information to you on request.

HyperTribes is part of the Public Sightings programme in Photo98 - the Year
of Photography and the Electronic Image. Public Sightings is a major
celebration of photography and digital imagery which will introduce
creative photography to people in new ways and in surprising places,
generating debate outside of the usual art gallery audience.
