[Nettime-ro] Hitchhiking to Transilvania anyone?

["Fundatia Culturala Meta" <metacult@gmail.com>]

*Autostop spre Transilvania - proiect de arta video colaborativa*

*1-31 August 2007*

* *

concept - Iuliana Varodi www.morisena.org

* *

In jur de 7 artisti specializati in arta video din nord si sud, est si vest
sunt invitati sa faca autostopul spre Transilvania. Pe drum, vor inregistra
imagini, sunete/muzica reprezentand tot ceea ce ii atrage sau ii intriga.
Locul de intalnire este Morisena, in Sangergiu de Mures – un centru pentru
proiecte de arta, schimburi culturale si dezvoltare regionala  - la 1 August
2007.



Prima saptamana va fi dedicata unui rastimp in  care artistii vor face
cunostinta, se vor familiariza unul cu materialele celorlalti, vor stabili
moduri de colaborare si vor hotari procedee in care materialul va fi folosit
pentru filmul final, de exemplu compunerea fragmentelor dupa un scenariu
scris impreuna. Artistii s-ar putea sa aiba nevoie sa mai adune material /
sa filmeze cadre la fata locului si in imprejurimi. Ultima saptamana va fi
rezervata edidarii si procesarii finale ale filmului.



Morisena pune la dispozitie atat tehnologia necesara pentru editare cat si
masa si cazarea in timpul proiectului. Conditiile vor fi decente dar simple
si impreuna vom avea grija ca locul sa curat, pate putin haotic dar
primitor. Vom avea vin de casa, gem, paine si multe altele, toate produse la
Morisena din fructe si legume din gradina noastra si ale vecinilor.



La sfarsitul lui august va avea loc vizioanrea filmului la Teatrul 74 in
Targu Mures. Raspandirea, cat si lansarea DVD-ului si distribuirea filmului
prin reteaua noastra de colaboratori va fi asigurata. Filmul va fi prezentat
in cadrul unor festivaluri de arta vizuala si film alternative, de exeplu
www.astrafilm.ro in Octombrie la Sibiu.





Continuaritate: in 2008 intentionam sa organizam reitinerea filmului in sens
invers spre punctul initial de pornire a fiecarui artist, cu o echipa de
caravane care va pleca de la Morisena in acelasi moment si va opri pe drum
in diferite locuri – in centre unde exista un interes pentru discutarea
filmului. Vizionarile in aceste centre se pot desfasura simultan, urmate de
mese rotunde si teleconferinte prin web cam in care se vor discuta aspecte
precum identitatea spatiilor parcurse etc. Acest proiect va fi dezvoltat in
colaborare cu SODAart (www.sodaart.at) in contextual proiectului NOMAD care
poate oferi logistica si infrastructura necesare proietctarii filmului si
desfasurarii meselor rotunde.



Proiectul va fi elaborat in continuare impreuna cu Fundatia Culturala META
si cu O3ONE, care vor juca un rol important in selectionarea artistilor,
curatorat si difuzarea rezultatului final.

*Hitchhiking to Transylvania – collaborative video art project*

1 – 31 August 2007**

*Concept: *Iuliana Varodi // www.morisena.org



*m **o r i s e n a** **  *offers a space for international collaborative art
projects, seminars on ecology, sustainability, contemporary art related
issues, summer camps and at times a dorm for backpackers::::::::::::::



About 7 video artists from north and south, east and west will be invited to
hitchhike to Transylvania. On the way, they will record images, sounds /
music representing whatever charms or intrigues them. The meeting point is
Morisena, the centre for art residencies, cultural exchange and local
development established in Sangeorgiu de Mures, on the 1st of August 2007.



The first week will be devoted to time for the artists to get familiar with
each other, to watch each others material and to figure out a way of working
together and to decide about the ways the material will be used for the
final film, for example recomposing fragments according to a script to be
written together. Artists may need to shoot some more material on the spot /
in the surroundings. The last week will be reserved for the editing and
final processing of the film. At the end of August a screening will take
place at Teatru 74 (in Targu Mures). Dissemination, as well as a DVD
publishing and spreading through our network will be provided. The movie
will be presented submitted to various art / alternative film festivals.



Morisena will provide the necessary technology for editing as well as food
and lodging during the project. The conditions will be quite basic, and
together we'll make sure the place will be clean, messy and cozy. There will
be homemade wine, jams, bread and more, all produced at Morisena from fruits
and vegtables coming mainly from our own (and neighboring) gardens.



*Continuity and follow up*: in 2008 we intend to have the film "travelling"
back to the original departure points of each artist, with a team of
caravans leaving Morisena at the same time and stopping on the road to
various locations – at centres that would be interested in discussing the
film. Various screenings can take place simultaneously, followed by round
table discussions and teleconferences via webcams in order to discuss issues
such as identity of the traversed spaces etc.  This project can be developed
in collaboration with SODAart (www.sodaart.at) in the context of their NOMAD
project, that can provide the needed caravans equipped with all it takes for
screenings and round-table discussions.
