European Media Art Festival 2008 - deadline 10 December 2007
EUROPEAN MEDIA ART FESTIVAL 2008, OSNABRÜCK
The motto of the 2008 festival is IDENTITY, reflected in film programmes, lectures and specials. Positioning by the media and artistic self-definitions will be pursued; individual, social and global identities in a rapidly changing world will be explored and queried according to subjective and scientific localisations.
The EMAF is one of the most influential forums of international Media Art. As a meeting point for artists, curators, lenders, gallery owners and an audience of specialists, the festival has had a great impact on the topic and aesthetics of Media Art. Each year the festival offers its visitors a current overview of experimental films, installations, performances, digital formats and hybrid forms, ranging from personal and political subjects or formal experiments to provocative statements.
At the festival an international jury will present the EMAF Award for a trend-setting work in Media Art and the Dialogpreis of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the promotion of intercultural exchange. Furthermore, the jury of the German Federal Association of Film Journalists will award the prize for the best German experimental film.

Eight digital works are showcased each month on a pair of large outdoor video displays in a prominent location in Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA, as well as on the project’s online gallery and archive (see: http://www.lumeneclipse.com).
Ideal length of artworks ranges from 2 to 8 minutes.
