[info at transfera.es]

The TRANSFERA VIDEO ART TV (www.transfera.es/programa37.html) and 
MADATAC AUDIO VISUAL MOSTRA (www.madatac.es) call for 2010 is open.

It is left open without restrictions the call to select, by means of a 
criteria in which will be valued particularly the quality, the 
experimentation, the innovation and the risk, the creations of all those 
audio-visual artists who wish that their works are promoted and 
broadcasted through a weekly and independent program of television 
broadcasted at La Central Digital/Canal Autor, a cable channel based in 
Madrid, Spain (Abdón Terradas nº4, 28015).

The content of the tv program Transfera is exclusively dedicated to 
divulgue videoart in all its modalities (any processes of image-sound 
interaction, without exclusion of the experimental cinema), with the aim 
to disclose to the great public a view of the consolidated videoartists 
and offer a platform for all those emergent videoartists with a future 
projection who contribute with renewing proposals, avoid  conventional 
visual language and  does not find their place in other mass media spaces.

Due to the difficult challenge that supposes to raise a project of this 
spread, destined essentially to compensate the well-known mediatic 
absence, in this first stage of non-profit test and consolidation of 
Transfera, the relation with the artists will be based on a principle of 
promotion and visibility,  a guideline directed to strengthen the 
sustainability of the program. Once assured the continuity, a 
remuneration will be agreed with the selected participants.

There is no deadline nor restrictions for the age of the participants or 
for the amount of material desired to send.

All the participants can also send a brief  promotional video about 
themselves and their work (not more than 4 minutes long), that will be 
included within the program as a presentation of their art.
The interested must send their works in a PAL DVD or video format mpeg 
or mov uncompressed files, (720x576 resolution, preferably 16:9, but 4:3 
is also accepted), with an acceptable quality for broadcasting, an jpg 
image of the video, a  brief  CV with their personal data, contact and a 
signed permission form to: TRANSFERA C/Galeno 41 28232 Las Rozas-Madrid 
(SPAIN).

Transfera cannot return the sent material. However, all the received 
material will enter, unless the authors express the contrary, in the 
selection for the II Edition of MADATAC, the Open Festival of 
Contemporary Audio-Visual Art that Transfera Media Arts will organize in 
Madrid, Spain, on December 2010.
This event will serve to prize the best videos emitted in the program 
during this time among the selected participants as a compensation for 
their support.
Also, it will be again an opportunity to watch and enjoy the most 
experimental and innovative audio visual creations, to meet the artist's 
and the scholar's of the future, to buy brand new video art pieces and 
to learn what is really moving this particular artistic discipline.

In the case that the piece is selected, Transfera will send a submission 
form with the agreement for  broadcast permission and rights clearance 
to be signed by you.
