Select
Media Festival goes to Europe this December, visiting Rotterdam, Amsterdam
and Paris. We are bringing programs that were featured at the Select
Media Festival 2 hosted in Chicago Nov 19-26, 2003. The TV
Sheriff and Trail Buddies as well as Misty Martinez and Douggpound will
be performing live. Agit-prop media from Select
and Lumpen magazines,
as well as installations by
Save America , Make Out Not War and other
surprises will be presented. We will be screening videos and films that
give a glimpse of dissent by cultural workers from the US and beyond.
The festival highlights "Cultural Interference" and will share an
examination of works by radical cultural activists and experimental video
makers critiquing various coercive forces and systems. Mixing desktop editing
techniques and a good sense of humorthese makers appropriate work, divert
and re-edit it as a way to register their dissent. Described as tactical mediaticians,
culture jammers, troublemakers, media activists and pranksters, these creators
have made works
that are some of the best from the digital video underground.
Our insurgent media festival will be presented on these dates at the following venues in different configurations: Please Click on "View Program" to see which programs will be featured.
