The evolution of art and cinema depends on interstitial works, pieces operating in between and outside of archaic genres, categories and formulas.

We want to move towards a world without limitations brought on by the need to sell a product to a consumer in a conveniently tidy package.  

We must rescue the brain’s pathways from years of conditioning, pathways stuck operating on a loop that tells us how we are going to respond to work of a certain ‘type’ or familiar style. 

Let us obliterate borders once and for all in order make way for a sparkling and dizzying new world where anything is possible and human creativity can finally reach its staggering potential!

This is a quadrennial festival which will take place every leap-year in our space in Chicago. It includes work from all over the globe in the form of experimental short film, digital video, performance art, process art, installations, multi-media, hypermedia, intermedia, and especially everything in between. Submissions will be open again soon!
