Hello iRez,

I know this is kind of last minute, but I am in my 3rd year organizing an AR festival, “The Wintermoot Mixed Reality Festival,” in Anchorage during Fur Rondy. This year it will be pretty fun, and I thought folks over at iRez may want to participate! The deadline is just for “i wish to participate’ purposes”.

Please feel free to pass it along!
Happy New Year!
–Nathan

Wintermoot Mixed Reality Festival

If on a winters night a traveler
We are accepting proposals for the annual Wintermoot Mixed Reality Festival @ Fur Rondy in Anchorage, Alaska. The show will be held from March 1 to March 31, 2013. The theme for the show this year is “If on a winters night a travel”, to integrate digital storytelling and travelogues into the festival. Works do not have to be exclusively narrative or Oulipian in nature. We are accepting proposals for works in 3D format, preferably in .obj/.mtl wavefront, we are also taking animated gifs and audio works (compressed mp3s).

If you have a project you would like to propose, please send an email to Nathan Shafer at shafernathan@ yahoo.com. We would like to have a proposal by January 15. We are also producing this project in a ‘step-sister city’ format, so if you are interested in working non-locally on a collaborative project with a local performer, musician, artist or storyteller, please let us know what you would like to do and we will see if we can help you out.

This show is being sponsored the Institute for Speculative Media and Out North Contemporary Art House.
