Experimentopia is the theme of Experimenta’s next International Biennial of Media Arts in 2009. Experimenta will be commissioning new works for up to $6,000 each to be included in our exhibition of exceptional Australian and international media artworks. Successful proposals for the commissions will respond to the exhibition theme, engage audiences, use technology creatively, and can be audio/visual, installation, or object-based. Preference will be given to proposals for interactive works.
In the rapidly shifting context of the beginning of the 21st Century – amidst personal, technological, economic, environmental, and political change – there are many different ways to move, directions to take, and personal choices to make. Located in the heart of this setting, Experimentopia asks: what matters to you?
