Mobile Exposure Mobile Video and Art Festival 3: "Life in the Global Village"
Microcinema International is putting out a call for their third annual short film traveling festival of films made BY mobile devices, Mobile Exposure.
This year they are expanding the definition of mobile devices to include wearable computers as well as portable gaming systems and have added an interactive art.
This year's theme of Mobile Exposure is "Life in the Global Village", where we ask what it means to live in a world where mobile technologies continue to put us in increasingly closer proximity to one another, other places, and other cultures.
Love, community, global connectedness, as well as surveillance, the eternal workplace, and the expanding social net are only some of the possibilities that we encourage for entries for this year's Mobile Exposure. Weblogs like Cronicas Brasil and citizen led mobile journalism are the things that are demonstrating the use of mobile technologies for social activism which we would like to capture.
Items like the Egyptian voting scandal mentioned on your blog are topics that we'd like addressed in this year's call.
