Call for Proposals: Light Moves Open Format


Following the recent open call for films and gallery works for our 2023 festival, Light Moves is delighted to announce a call for proposals for its Open Format presentation platform.

Download the Call for Proposals document here.

This open call invites proposals or provocations that go beyond the parameters of the festival’s screenings and exhibition presentation. Proposal may include discussion forums, exploratory workshop, performance-lecture, interviews, talks, reading groups, listening sessions, sitting or walking sessions, broadcasts, parties, podcasts, publications, research-orientated projects. These can be programmed in studio, on stage, online or outdoors.

We invite dance artists, screendance makers, arts practitioners, scholars and all those contributing to dance, film and media arts to share proposals with us. We will consider the ideas in relation to the emerging festival programme of events. The Festival’s 7th programme is developing while reflecting on these words: Noticing, Welcoming, Instability, Degrowth, Dissolving, Expansion and Nature. We are curious how your work and proposal might consider these words as ideas, and how the festival might situate your proposal as an offering to the festival community to experience, question and play alongside.

Selected proposals/provocations will be programmed during the festival and will be offered a fee to develop and present.

Submissions

If you would like to address and imagine a topic of interest or concern in the field of dance, screendance, film or media arts please submit your ideas to us. This can be as an individual or a group. These initial expression of interest should include:

-300 words max outlining: your idea, timeframe and spatial needs. Reference how your proposal would be of interest to our festival and/or a particular community of interest.
-Any other brief info you think useful for us to know while considering your idea.
-Your biographical information.

Points to note

-Please propose a duration that is relevant to your idea.
-Technical set up and take down should be reasonably minimal to allow for turnover of events.
