Electrofringe is a hands-on, all-in new media arts festival dedicated
to unearthing emergent forms, highlighting nascent trends and
encouraging young and emerginging artists to explore technology and its
creative possibilities. Electrofringe will take place in Newcastle as
part of the This Is Not Art Festival from the 29th September - 3rd
October 2005. The Electrofringe directors for 2005 are Wade Marynowsky
& Sumugan Sivanesan.

We are now seeking EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST from new media artists,
curators, artsworkers, writers and producers. Possible areas for
investigation include (but are not limited to) wireless, wearable,
sensor based, sound, video, audio/visual, web, networked & online
collaborations, software, art & science, robotics, custom electronics,
experimental interfaces, media based installations, performance and
hybrid practices.

Electrofringe is a skills and arts development festival thus the
dominant format consists of panels, workshops and masterclasses. Please
bear in mind that there are limited opportunities for exhibitions and
presentations of full works. Gigs will be arranged by the This Is Not
Art Festival Gigs Coordinators in consultation with the individual
festivals with artists drawn from the festival program so please apply
with the festival format in mind.

webform by 15st April 2005. We will contact you if we require further
information and examples of your work. For more information on
