           EUROPEAN MEDIA ART FESTIVAL 1998
                   6-10th May 1998
------------------------------------------------------------

You are warmly invited to send contributions to the eleventh
European Media Art Festival. An international forum for
contemporary media art, this festival will gather together
artists, theoreticians, journalists and a young engaged
public in Osnabrueck from 6 to 10 May 1998.


CALL FOR ENTRIES

Experimental and innovative works can be submitted on film,
video, CD-Rom and the Internet, as well as in the form of
installations or performance pieces.

The deadline for submissions is 2 March 1998.!!!!!!!!

We welcome contributions such as discussion topics and
essays on themes relating to specific media. Selected
contributions will be published in the festival catalogue
and on our web-site. At the festival a jury of film critics
will present the German Film Critics award for the best
German experimental film or video production of the year.

SPECIALS

The EMAF programme has been extended to include featured
artists, retrospectives and presentations on specific
countries. Hong Kong, South America and various countries of
Eastern Europe have been the subject of previous festivals.
The series will be continued in 1998 with a comprehensive
programme from Sweden.

RETROSPECTIVES

The subject of this year's presentation will be the films
and installations of West Coast filmmaker Pat O`Neill, whose
films are created on an optical printer, combining the
functions of camera and projector. O`Neill has developed and
perfected this tool for the manipulation of images since the
early 1970s. The results, which can often surprise, are a
combination of technically brilliant images and a new kind
of film language.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENT FORUM

The International Student Forum is an integral component of
EMAF, giving students from the various European film and
media colleges the chance to present their current
productions. An important focus is the exhibition of video
and computer installations. Students working in all fields
are invited to send in their current productions to the
festival!

INTER NET(Z)WERKE

The Virtual Festival Forum is a new EMAF project in which
new ways of exhibiting film, video and the digital media are
explored, and experiments are developed using the various
systems.

In co-operation with the Berlage Institut Amsterdam and the
Festival film+arc Graz, EMAF has organised Dialogue Spaces,
a project in which the new forms of communication provided
by the Internet are brought together with modern
architectural conceptualisations of real and virtual spaces.

Net-Culture

Projects, strategies, and constructions are the focus of the
symposium Net-Culture, which will throw light on current
artistic and philosophical developments in the media.

EXHIBITION 6th - 24th May, 1998

As in previous years the Kunsthalle Dominikanerkirche will
be central venue for the Electronic Cafe, the seminars and
the international exhibition of film, video and computer
installations. This newly renovated building offers an ideal
space for realisation of artistic concepts which span
sculpture, projection and networking.

>From the 23 to the 25 of February 1998, 600 representatives of peoples
movements will meet in Geneva to establish a platform for worldwide
action against trade liberalisation: the Peoples' Global Action against
"Free"
Trade and the WTO (PGA).

The PGA will work as a tool for coordination, exchange of information and
mutual support for the struggles of all those hit by neoliberal
globalisation. It calls for non-violent civil disobedience and the
construction of local alternatives by local people, as answers to the
action of multilateral institutions, governments and corporations.

The first big-scale action in the calendar of the PGA will be a wave of
decentralised mobilisations and protests all over the world parallel to
the
Second Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organisation (WTO),
which shall take place on 18-20 May 1998.

The meeting in February will be the founding conference of the PGA, since
it will lay down the basis of the alliance in the form of a manifesto. It
is being convened by a committee formed by some of the most
representative peoples' movements of all continents, including peasant
movements (like the Brazilian Movimento Sem Terra, the Indian KRRS
and the Peasant Movement of the Philippines), indigenous peoples (like the
Mexican Zapatistas, the Nigerian Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni
People, the Indigenous Women's Network of North America and the
Pacific and FIA, a Maori organisation from Aotearoa), unions (like the
Central Sandinista de Trabajadores from Nicaragua) and women's
organisations (like Mama 86, an organisation of Ukranian women affected
by the Chernobyl disaster, and the above mentioned Indigenous Women's
Network).

Other events will take place around the first PGA conference. From the 18
to the 21 of February, there will be several information and discussion
roundtables on topics such as gender, food production, culture, economics,
etc.,  prepared by organisations participating in the conference. On
February 22 there will be a one-day intensive seminar on the WTO, the
MAI and trade liberalisation. On February 26 there will be a number of
coordination and planning sessions in small groups, divided according to
the topics treated in the roundtables. Finally, on February 27 there will
be a European meeting to launch a Europe-wide movement of civil
disobedience against "free" trade.

If you want more information about the PGA and its first conference,
please visit the web page http://www.agp.org or send a message to
playfair@asta.rwth-aachen.de

IMPORTANT: If you are interested in this conference and come from
Africa, Asia, Latin America or Central and Eastern Europe, please get in
touch with the conference secretariat RIGHT NOW, even if you are not
sure about your participation. The Swiss visa procedure is probably the
most difficult one in the whole world. There will be limited funds to
support the travel expenses of some delegates; you will receive more
information about this at the beginning of 1998, but you should anyhow
send your application now.

Maybe some of you will remember the ZK meeting in the Waag? Well,
someone's finally made such a machine--and a very clever one too.
