>>>As some may have noticed, we are well underway with Trans oo2 planning.
I wanted to make the first formal announcement regarding the festival to
let folks know what is going on, and also to inform local experimental
film and and video makers that we are soliciting work for screenings until
the 15th of April.

We are particularly interested in work that develops & explores the
inter-relationships between sound and image. We will accept screening
copies of the work to be shown in the formats of 8mm, Super8, 16mm, & VHS.  
There is no length requirement or limit. There is no submission fee.

Please send a VHS copy of your work with    a SASE to:

    Trans002 Film/Video
    112 East Lynch Street
    Durham, NC 27701-1926 

    Tapes submitted without a SASE can not
    be returned. Deadline for submissions is
    April 15, 1999.

There are still a few slots remaining for anyone interested in
film/video/other visual installations.  Parameters for these type of
projects may be fairly loose - these will likely occur at the Carrboro
Arts Center and other area [non-traditional] locations. Please contact me
directly for more information regarding these projects and opportunities.

Transmissions is expanding considerably this year - we are very excited
about exploring the dynamics of local space and spaces, and as mentioned
above, are putting together a series of installations [primarily audio] to
take place in local businesses, restaurants, coffeshops, and other outdoor
and indoor public spaces.  This is, in part, an effort to involve more and
different people and spaces, but we are also endeavoring to provide
opportunity for a sort of examination and differentiated apprehension of
local sonorial space[s].
