Subject: [piksel] Cinema Solubile: piksel 2006 edition -- call for makers

- -------------------------------- IMMEDIATISMO FUTURISTA!

Out of the routine of the ???professional??? art-maker GENIUS lies  
ready to be awaken. It can be awaken by immediate, irrational, all  
giving, no-seat-belt-allowed creative action.


This is the Futurist credo. "Cinema solubile" means cinema that gets  
dissolves & instant cinema. A movie to be conceived, acted, shot,  
edited and seen in 24 hours. And destroyed after. A small tribute to  
the futurist manifesto of cinema and an excuse to blatantly overcome  
the limits of canonicity in art.

???Immediatismo??? means to follow the impulsive action and  
demonstrate the essence of geniality. Apply immediate creative action  
to a complex, time consuming technical practice like cinema is hard.  
It requires elasticity, improvisation, freedom, capacity, will,  
tenacity, preparation and courage.

Analogy, synthesis, speed, generosity, and all giving bursting life  
is the main ingredient of the process. Futurism is and will always be  
a slap in the face of those who view to judge, given by those who  
dream to do. Such approach is perfect to sharp the nails of us,  
modern barbarians of a new eve.

It is time we sharp also our teeth and bite out the sun with a  
decisive, all eating bite.

- --------------------------------
THE GAME:::
the time of the game is 23 hrs. 11 artists that work with image and  
film are invited to make a no budget film in this time lapse, about  
an unpredictable subject. After presenting their creation to the  
audience they destroy the master.

	Only rules are:
	???	the film has to be no budget
	???	the film has to be thought, shoot, edited and shown in 23 
	hrs time
then it will be destroyed.
	???	the film has to be visible as a film, by audience seated in 
	a  dark room watching a screen. Any technique that allows the maker this  
is (offcourse) allowed.
	??? 	film duration cannot be longer than 6???33??????and 11 
	frames.

FOR PIKSEL EDITION - ONLY OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE WILL BE USED BY THE  
MAKERS -
::: TIME
How the game will be cooked:

	1.	To setup the space makers will be exposed to splinters of 
	futurism.
		From 20:11 to 21:23.
		A noise/tuning group of futurists (unorosso) has to float on 
		the  sound waves in the room, allowing unpredictable resonation. Awaken by  
the rhythmic figures of the music futurist poetry will be read in the  
original languages (Italian, Russian, Duch, French and other  
available languages). Sound makers can be guest artists for the  
evening, cueing in their 1???22??? of live sound remix of the signal  
coming from the unorosso performance board the way they like.
Original footage will be shown from Cubo-futurism an Surrealist films.
	2.	At 10:11 PM sharp the 11 players are requested to ???put in 
	a  hat??? a piece of paper with a two liner subject for a film. From the  
same hat opportunely shuffled each of them will take his story trace.  
Then he will be left on his way to make his film. He is free to use/ 
invent the technique of his choice
	3.	the film-makers are allowed to start producing their clip 
	right  after taking the subject from the hat.
	4.	the following day, at 9:11 pm the works have to be given 
	back to  the jury that will gather in the cinema for the viewing. They will 
be  shown at once in the order they have been assigned, in front of  
_real_ public.
	5.	After the projection the maker will be invited on stage TO  
DESTROY the master of his work.
	6. 	A prize will be given to the best film chosen by a selected 
	jury

The viewing can be broadcasted on the internet to connected  
audiences. The audience will be invited to cast a preference and  
generally used as in the guidelines of the Futurist  Variety Show  
manifesto.

ESSERCI O NON ESSERE (Be there or be not).



MOREOVER

Cinema Solubile main aim is to stimulate the creation of peculiar  
content in the most unconventional and free form possible

Cinema Solubile is for an elitarian use of ???the artist??? against  
the elitarian conception of the artifact.

Cinema Solubile is a light format for a mini-festival of experimental  
visual art that challenges makers to entertain themselves and their  
public in a new, much theatrical way; as such mixes well with new  
technologies and experimental techniques.

Cinema Solubile is a way to reconnect XXI century with the forgotten  
possibilities that did _not_ made it in the XX (but deserved to).





IF YOU

would like to be in the game or have an idea of someone that SHOULD  
BE IN IT write me a line...



Thank you !
