AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

http://www.wooloo.org/newlifecopenhagen

NEW LIFE COPENHAGEN 2099 is a contemporary art festival powered by the collective thinking of WOOLOO.ORG's worldwide users.

NEW LIFE COPENHAGEN 2099 will take place as official part of the cultural program for the United Nations (UN) Conference for Climate Change in Copenhagen, Denmark from December 9th to 18th, 2009.

To challenge the discourse surrounding our future co-existence on this planet - while simultaneously questioning the forms of governance being produced by the UN's nation-based power structure - NEW LIFE COPENHAGEN has adopted the general theme of “2099”.

The festival curators invites artists to submit proposals for products, life styles and everyday interventions, as they could look and function in the year 2099.

Sommeil: A Concert for Sleep

In early April I will be reinterpreting the sleep concert experiment,
first created by Robert Rich ( http://robertrich.com/ ) in 1982, at a
well established gallery in New Orleans, Louisiana. I am doing so
with Rich's permission and guidance. Sleep concerts as presented by
Rich are all night events in which the audience is asked to attend the
concert with a sleeping bag and pillow and to fall asleep while a
slowly unfolding sonic texture evolves over the course of the night
and into the morning. This concert will begin at 10 pm and end at 7
am with tea and breakfast.

Not merely a recreation of Rich's original idea, Sommeil will be a
global reinterpretation of a performance type that addresses one of

The Core Program awards artist and critical studies residencies to highly motivated, emerging visual artists and critical writers who have completed their academic training but have not yet fully developed a professional career.

About the program

Independent documentarians and film makers from around the world can
submit their work to The Talking Pictures Festival, which will be held
near Chicago, in the U.S., from May 1 to 3. The deadline to enter is
January 30.

Though the organizers are accepting films on a variety of topics, this
year's theme focuses on sustainability, organic food and agriculture,
and the environment. Thus, the organizers are especially interested in
receiving entries related to those themes.

Interested participants may submit documentaries, fiction films, music
videos, experimental films, animation, short/long films, and any other
genre of film. Winners will be awarded with cash.
