Hedonistika Call for proposals
Deadline January 15th, 2013
Hedonistika will be a three-day, multi-modal event held in Montréal, CA
that brings together food scholars, artists, and roboticists to examine the
innumberable (and often hidden) ways in which technology and food are
related. By engaging with the hegemony-challenging ideology of hacking,
participants will seek to interrogate and expose the mutually constructive
bonds of food and tech, while proposing alternative, playful, and
stimulating reconfigurations. Part festival, part workshop, and part
symposium, Hedonistika will merge research-creation with critical analysis,
and community engagement with celebration. (Plus, it will taste and look
really cool.)
Hedonistika is looking for projects and individuals that explore the
critical issues within these realms. The curators are accepting proposals
for installation and performance work, completed or not for exhibition in
the festival portion of the event. Artists should submit a pdf document
comprised of …
* A short CV (2 pgs)
* Short description of the project (150 words max)
* Long description of the project (500 words max) including images if
possible
* Short bio
* Description of support material
* Documentation of past work (no more than 10 items)
* URL to artist website
Hedonistika is scheduled for 2013 in Montreal and will be an Elektra
sponsored event. Please e-mail submissions to: hedonistika2013 at gmail.com
