MONO NO AWARE FILM PERFORMANCE EVENT CALL FOR ENTRIES OPEN
MONO NO AWARE is a film performance event to any person or group of persons making work incorporating Super8 or 16mm film format as part of that presentation. For example: blending film and theater, musicians creating a visual experience for their sound & experimental filmmakers working with storytellers. 2009 marks our third year.
Part of our purpose in having this gathering is to put an emphasis on the cinematic experience. Film and video have become easily accessible, you can watch video clips on a website, television, a home projector, and even your cell phone. For some filmmakers those vehicles are copies of the original artwork, each one degraded by its format. We believe there is magic in seeing the film as a print. There is a presence a poet has reading his/her own writing. There is a feeling that resonates in your chest when you see a band live. For these reasons we require that all entries be on film only, no digital video and are encouraging live music, performance & audio to expand the cinematic experience beyond the screen. We ask that in the spirit of the festival you not video or create copies of your performance. Some participants have gone as far as to destroy the work after its first run at the event.
