Pixel Pops! V.5 2009 Curator Search
Deadline: July 15, 2009
info@poppingpixels.org

There is not much time left! We are looking for suitable candidates to serve as curator for the 2009 PixelPops! show and have enormous freedom to create a one-of-kind exhibit within the framework of PixelPops. The show should take place sometime before the end of December 2009. Please suggest dates convienent for your schedule.

This is a non-paid position. We have no grant money and therefore have begged and borrowed equipment and resources in years past (and plan to continue this method until funding arrives:-) The sucessful candidate will:
  1. CHOSE A THEME AND HELP CRAFT THE CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS.
    Click here for an example of a call for sumbissions from a past exhibit.

  2. FIND AND ARRANGE A VENUE (gallery, university setting, airfield, warehouse, gas station, open field, etc...) AND SOME COMPUTER EQUIPMENT to display the show (screen-based, projection, cell phone, whatever you can muster). The exhibit does not have to run any amount of time - it could be a week or a month - whatever the venue will allow.

  3. JURY THE SHOW using our online tools. If you don't want to jury alone feel free to suggest a co-curator.

  4. ADVERTISE LOCALLY and HAVE AN OPENING RECEPTION!

    That's it!

    This is a non-paid position. The curator will be provided with online jurying tools, marketing materials and a lot of long distance support. We will set up and broadcast the Call For Submissions (based on the curator's input for theme, file types etc...), provide the online submission form system and disk space for all entries, and we will provide as much technical support as possible. Once the pieces have been chosen by the curator for the exhibit we download and burn to DVD (or appropriate format) and ship to curator/venue if need be.
