6x6 = Video, Performance, and Sound Work! Oh My!

It's Time to Submit Again to 6X6

Submit to 6X6: Hypnotic Suggestion Video

Just when you thought it was over, 6X6 is returning for another round of fast, free fun. Will we be able to top the antics of sweatered rabbits, searching for Gina, and locating Paul? Will the door prizes get any better? What can we possibly do to keep 6X6 fresh and unexpected? Stay tuned, the answer will surprise you.

In the meantime, the 6X6 call for submissions has been posted. New themes, new curators, and new dates, but with some continuity -- the curators are artists whose work was submitted in the first round, so they know the drill, and are ready to put their own stamp on the proceedings. You can too -- submit your video, performance, and sound work now! It's free and easy to submit; all submissions are posted to the 6X6 YouTube channel; and selected artists receive fame and glory, or at least the opportunity to capture the perfectly short attention spans of the 6X6 audience, a faithful and enthusiastic bunch of novelty-starved Athenians. Get with it -- submit to one or more themes today through March 21, 2011. See the complete schedule at: http://hexadic.blogspot.com/p/schedule.html

About 6X6: A series of media arts events in Athens, Georgia, open for submission to anyone from anywhere in the world. Video, film, sound, performance, or combination. Six minutes or less. Shorter can be better! Monthly themes and curators, October-December 2010 and February-April 2011. Next up: Chance, curated by the 6X6 Audience. Submit by September 21. http://hexadic.blogspot.com


About The Curator for 6X6 Chance:
The 6X6 Audience consists of seasoned professionals who understand the ins and outs of audience participation. They come, they buy beverages, they sit, they applaud, they volunteer, and they come back again. What a great group! They will bring their own signature style to the proceedings, one that mixes the experimental with the tried and true, the women with the men, and the unpredictable with the just plain unforeseeable.

New Digs

After graduating, UGA wasn't going to let me keep my studio forever so I did the most logical thing ... I relocated into a room at my house. Yeah, it's cramped and hopefully temporary, but it sure is fun to paint in my pajamas at 4:00 a.m. when the Muses call.


Marco Polo Quarterly

Darin Beasley and Brian Hitselberger just began an online contemporary fiction journal called Marco Polo Quarterly. I'm terribly flattered to be the featured artist in their first issue! Check it out.
