THE AIM FESTIVAL
AIM, in partnership with the Museum of Contemporary Arts, Los Angeles,
presents Luna Park: a series of critical inquiries into the crucial issues
raised by the nexus of art, technology, entertainment and activism in the
context of globalization and the rising privatization of culture. At the
core of this debate is the ascendance of entertainment and our ubiquitous,
and largely unquestioned, fascination with the spectacular.

Titled in reference to the world's first modern amusement park AIM III: Luna
Park takes place January =82 April 2002, and consists of a series of dynamic
lectures, culminating in a two-day symposium, an International Student
Competition and exhibition, and a number of related events. Further festival

THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENT COMPETITION
AIM III seeks student entries for its International Student Competition. The
selected entries will be hosted by AIM in an online exhibition, featured in
an exhibition at USC, and will become part of the select pool of works that
AIM draws on when touring internationally. Prizes, including the $1000 USC
SOFA Award, will be awarded by a distinguished jury including: designer,
writer, researcher, and performer Brenda Laurel, and author, researcher, and
curator Erkki Huhtamo.

Submission Criteria: Works must be 'time-based' and created by a student, of
any age, working in any discipline. Works should also be capable of
exhibition on the Internet, and address the festival theme. AIM defines
'time-based' to include: websites, Internet projects, film, video, digital
video, hand-drawn and digital animation, interactive computer games, sound
pieces, digital media, CD-ROMs, and DVDs -  as well as various emerging
hybrids that elude traditional categorization. All entries must be completed
after October 1, 1999, and be complete enough for on-line presentation at
the time of submission. All entries must be postmarked no later than January
15, 2002.

How to Enter: Submission to AIM is free. Submit copies of projects (no
originals please) in the form of a DVD, VCD, VHS (NTSC), Macintosh CD-ROM,
or a URL, as appropriate. Other formats can be accommodated by prior
arrangement with AIM.
