[spectre] Call for entries: 10th Cologne International Videoart Festival

[{ brad brace }]

just say 'no' to entry/application forms!

The Cultural Institution further rationalizes its operations through vertical
integration, ensuring its access to the eternal new that drives the machine by
invading the sanctum of every possible avant-garde. Responsible business newspapers
print feature stories on the nation's hippest neighbourhoods; sober TV programs air
segments on the colourful world of 'zines'; ad agencies hire young scenesters to
penetrate and report back on the latest 'underground' doings. Starry-eyed college
students are signed up as unpaid representatives of record conglomerates, eager to
push product, make connections, and gain valuable experience on the lower rungs of
the corporate ladder; while music talent scouts, rare creatures once, are seen
everywhere prospecting for the cultural fuel that only straight-off-the-street
'tude can provide.
