The FCMM, new International Festival on Film, Video and New Media from Montreal
which will held in Montreal, Quebec from 5 to 15 June has a new section
called New Medias.
In order to organize the New Media program, we are looking to book events
for the first week end of June.
Under the direction of Alain Mongeau, and the help of Channel (main techno
producer here) we are seeking to program the Media Lounge section.
The media Lounge will be like a night cap for the thousands of incomers and
cinema afficionados.
So we are looking for events which are incorporating music, ambient,
experimental, loungy and which relates in a way or another to the Big or
the Small screens.
The idea here is not to rave the city during these weeks (even if Channel
is putting on a major rave the 14th with ahead Carl Craig) but to present
the involvment of music in cinema and far more the implications of new
technologies in the devloppment of techno music.
Names like Köner which before Porter Ricks was involved with Jügern
Rebble, a cinematographer, in an explosive music-images duo, or Atom
Heart (which music is softly visualistic), DJ Spooky and the Illbient crew
(is there any visuals involved in their sets???) , Sakkho crew are names
which come to mind.
The media lounge will be also a Cyberport, Internet connections to lits of
sites regarding new medias applications and creations, Connections wth
other events which happen worldwhile at the same time (sonar-Barcelona,
Northern Light-Finland....), a place to experiment sound and visual.
So, if you have any idea of events which would fit this short description,
get in touch with me as soon as possible. Theses events can be yours,
related bands or anybody else....I'm just quickly digging, so that the
producers can then browse easily.
Thanks in adavance
