eco-poetics

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival at
Ithaca College, Ithaca, New York. Deadline: January , 2006.
Deadline: January 3, 2006.

The Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival seeks seek finished
projects of electronic art, ready to be mounted on-line, on the theme
of eco-poetics. Selected artistic interventions on electronic
interfaces between sustainability and environmental thought will be
exhibited at The 9th Annual Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival
at Ithaca College, March 30-April 6, 2006, and subsequently
maintained in off-line form in The Rose Goldsen Archive of New Media
Art, Cornell University Library.

eco-poetics.
How might new media environments and technological flows intervene in
eco-culture and eco-politics? What is the relationship between the
techne of eco-poetics and the imperative of eco-politics? How do
internet paradigms of speed, flow, and traffic impact notions of
sustainability? Do mobile technologies and global positioning
systems provide platforms for ecological activism? What about the
military's utilization of ludic gaming systems for digital terror and
ecological devastation? How might new media interventions offset the
media blackouts of the global ecology of war and public health
degradation? How can the artistic mixing of ecological and poetic
materials-organic, inorganic, technological, aural, visual-create
alternative and fertile environments in new media culture?

Please send a description of your project, including conceptual
abstract, technical format, and preview URL, to the Festival On-Line
Curators, Timothy Murray, Patricia R. Zimmernann, and Tom Shevory:
