>Stranger of the Month
>Part of the 2008 Next Wave Festival - www.nextwave.org.au
><http://www.nextwave.org.au/>
>
>
>Call for Expressions of Interest
>Deadline: 12th October 2007
>
>
>
>Combining the collaborative impulse in contemporary art with
>user-centric trends in new media, Stranger of the Month draws upon the
>wisdom of the crowd.
>
>Taking the stranger as its subject, artists conduct a viral marketing
>campaign throughout media platforms to engage and produce a community of
>participants. Through this process, it becomes apparent that publics
>emerge by virtue of being addressed; they are relational, not static.
>
>Interaction with its publics will be entirely mediated; artists may
>either inhabit social networking sites to contact their participants,
>such as Facebook, or 43Things, or alternately, they may use traditional
>spaces for public broadcast, such as the classified sections of the
>local newspaper or community bulletin boards.
>
>Written instructions may stand-alone for their critical merit, or
>alternatively invite a variety of responses from participants. Both
>written instructions and generated responses will be presented
>throughout public spaces such as Federation Square, during the 2008 Next
>Wave Festival, and be reproduced in an online instructional manual.
>
>Find Out More
>
>An information session will be held at the Meat Market, North Melbourne,
>Thursday, September 6, 2007, from 6-8pm.
>
>Expressions of interest should include:
>
>*	A 200 word paragraph describing what you'd like to do
>*	Two JPEG images of the artist's most recent work
>*	A 200wd bio and one-page CV
