///// OPEN CALL -> deadline 21st of April 2016
The second iteration of free_art_-_* discursive contemporary art concept is looking forward to authors’ [artists, coders, clever copycats] worldwide submissions for a RL exhibition to be held @ Inquiry Inc. [in Osijek, CRO], an independent artist space run by the artist organisation Format C.
Our theme is our source, as kind of instruction-based art seen in the rhizomatic context of computer-based new media, transmedia and hypermedia art and culture.
We are looking for the source code of your art, scripts that make up the features of your art or the textual representation of the data your art is built out of.
That could include: html, scripts, any media file printable content format (ASCII, ANSI, HEX,..), any programming language snippets,.. Non exclusive / no formal limitations other than being character printable, it should have an aesthetic property (visual or ideological) and it should be shown in full.
It can be completely original; compiled from other sources; utterly unoriginal but aesthetically interesting; completely disqusting but make up a curious work; brilliant haiku-type code that does wonders for your project; something highly fringe or discoursive; something free; something stolen; etc. …
The objective of the expo is to show diverse technological linguistics, philosophical approaches and artistic intentions for the construction of new media art.
[ the deadline for the open call is 21st of April, and the exhibition date is 24th to 25th of April ]
Please submit printable text documents as work only!
Along with the text file, we require a documentative screencap of the work the code composes.

Our focus of interest is on contemporary artistic research and creative production, and we also deal with all things fringe and visionary.
