REMIX.
Rolling on from my post earlier this week about people who brazenly choose to express themselves in more than one discipline, I have come across not one but two multi-disciplinary festivals that are both looking to recruit talented people like you.
Tomorrow I will turn my attention to Yarn but first in my inbox is Remix which promotes itself as, frankly, the coolest thing a hipster can do beyond actually hanging outside a brownstone and waiting for Lou Reed’s man. So if you’ve ever drawn a triangle on your wrist or actually own a tumblr then here is the Remix press release and contact details…
Are you a poet/novelist/songwriter? Maybe you’re in a band? What about a fashion designer? Are you a graphic artist? A filmmaker? A photographer?
Yes? Keep reading.
Are you emerging, fearless and enquiring?
Yes? Pull up a chair. Let’s talk.
REMIX is fascinated with the idea of adaptation: in how content transfers but also how forms and skills translate. Why do we, as practitioners, choose the mediums we do to tell the stories we tell?
REMIX is looking to bring together a creative team of exciting emerging practitioners who have asserted themselves as innovators in film, theatre, fashion, music and the digital arts but who have never created a piece of theatre before. We’ll collaborate and communicate, creating a live performance with an ensemble of actors. It doesn’t stop there. Each creative will be tasked with adapting the play into a bespoke adaptation for their own specialism. The REMIXes – the play in its five incarnations – will be launched at a live event on 29 and 30 April 2010 – alchemizing the theatre, visual art, virtual media, fashion, music and literary industries.
REMIX will steal all the best bits of all the mediums whilst leaving behind the constraints/rules. Where do you sign up?
