Original 2006 Call

The “Mobile Art Media Attack” unit (Mama) will feature a wide range of equipment for exhibiting new media works. The rules are…there are no rules, -just gotta fit in MAMA (a 45x30x27 case and will contain the contents of this traveling, new media based exhibition.) Much of the work we’re interested in will deal with media, technology, culture, etc. We are inviting a range of artists whose work may take such forms as net-art, sound, video, interactivity, gaming, multi-media, installation, activism/tactical media, robotics, haptic environments, open-source, hybridity, trans-media, wireless art, nomadic work, motion graphics, animation and technological and cultural interface performance. All configurations for work are variable to an extent. Currently, we plan to outfit MAMA with 2 CPU’s, iMac G5s with iSight, 2 video projectors, approx. 32” (max) plasma screen, surround sound stereo equipment, wireless networking capabilities, iPod for audio components/sound art, built-in server and a range of software. We are very excited that MAMA will also have her own GPS tracking device and web-map interface. Currently, she is a Mac set-up, but if necessary, we can accommodate PC. Cabling and power supply back-up will also be integrated into the system. In short, this will be one well-packed mama.
