Digital Art Wanted – Hex Pixel Gallery, Kansas City, Missouri, USA – ongoing deadline #digitalart
CALL FOR DIGITAL / VIDEO / INTERACTIVE ARTISTS KCMO
Hex Gallery Kansas City, Missouri/USA
Hello friends!
We’re opening up a digital art gallery in Kansas City, Missouri called the HEX Pixel Gallery that shows Digital / HD Video / and Interactive work. We’ve got a great art scene here, but there’s not a gallery that primarily focuses on video and digital installations.
We will feature the work of one artist for one evening on the first friday of every month, which are huge occasions here in Kansas City.
Our space has 3 large 1080p projectors, media drives, computers and access to a lot of other stuff we can set up that we can use to play back video or interactive art. We are making a point to have no printed collateral of any kind. We’ll be mounting iPads around the space to allow people to read more information about the artist. The displays will also contain a QR code which links to a page with more information. All publicity and signage in the space is digital.
If you are interested in showing at HEX Pixel Gallery please send a CV and/or artist statement and links to a few pieces of your work to contact@hexpixelgallery.com
Things to consider when applying:
1. HEX is heavily focused on high resolution digital work, so please know that HEX prefers HD content over SD, especially for single channel video work.
2. HEX is only open one day a month, so interactive or installation work needs to be temporary and able to be quickly installed and uninstalled.
3. HEX really likes your shoes. Are they new?

Babel Fiche, a collaborative film project by Dave Griffiths @dgrifff
Babel Fiche is a crowd-sourced film that collects and remixes amateur video footage. During 2011 participants are gathering and selecting contemporary clips which describe everyday life around the Earth. These movie fragments will be printed on colour microfiche – a photographic medium capable of lasting 500 years and simply requiring light and a lens to expand its contents. This analogue throwback might even outlast our current reliance on fragile digital storage.
Babel Fiche is an imaginary media for future anthropologists. It asks which behaviours, objects, traditions and conflicts we want to communicate to a future world. Today’s human cultures, physique and technology will inevitably develop out of all recognition. So how might a future species translate our current times?
Babel Fiche will ponder the problem by animating and remixing the microfiche contents as a series of new short films. This production stage is driven through Wreckamovie, an online platform to help organise participatory movie projects. Babel Fiche wonders if it will be possible to resolve coherent films under these social conditions.
