VIPER Basel | Competition 2004 ……………………………………….. Call for entries ……………………………………….. VIPER Basel | International Festival for Film Video and New Media 18 – 22 November 2004 ……………………………………….. VIPER Basel | Competition 2004 The VIPER Basel | Competition 2004 is an international competition. An independent jury will nominate and award the works and projects submitted in the categories [imagination | processing | transposition]. [Imagination] This category is open to works and projects dealing with traditional and future forms of the moving image. Possible submissions include analogue and digital films/videos, experimental films (including sound/video), 2D and 3D animations, extended forms of traditional cinema, linear and non-linear narrative image sequences, mobile and innovative screen formats, split- and/or multiple-screen arrangements. They may be complemented by modes of individual and collective interaction if wished. [Processing] This category is open to works and projects that are characterised by processes and live elements. Installations or systems can be submitted that are devised to involve a local situation and/or an audience actively, thus emphasising the ability to interact and improvise when handling digital information systems. This includes performances, immersive and hybrid (real/virtual) environments, \’play- and social software\’ applications, \’smart objects\’, intelligent and ambient systems as well as interface and interaction design. [Transposition] This category is open to works and projects emphasising acting and communicating within technologically defined networks. Applications, prototypes and concepts can be submitted that use or specifically apply network architecture that functions independently of time and place. This includes for example location-related and distributed systems (LAN/WAN/WIFI etc.), mobile computing, GPS applications, infra-red and Bluetooth connections. The key feature in each case is an unusual and/or experimental use of technologically defined network topographies. IMPORTANT DATES Submission: April 15, 2004 (date of the official postal stamp) Works and projects which are not ready by the closing date for entries can be entered in the form of indicative documentation material or as a concept description.
