Call for entries The Classic II Exhibition

[Lars Gustav Midboe]

Call for entries The  Classic II Exhibition - Short version.

Electrohype will organize an exhibition with 24 artists presenting 
works on the Macintosh Classic II computer. The exhibition will take 
place at Electrohype-ROM in Malmo, Sweden during the period December 
1st. 2003 and January 20th. 2004.

The idea is that the exhibition will focus and reflect on the 
development both in computer based art and the accelerating demands 
on hardware used to create and present art.

Electrohype will provide the opportunity, and the hardware. The 
artists are hereby invited to provide the content.

The exhibition has a clear reference to the 1997 exhibition, called 
"Mac Classics (the immaculate machines)" at the Postmasters Gallery 
in New York. This exhibition was curated and organized by Tamas 
Banovich. More info and text about this exhibition can be found on 
our web site, please follow link in the end of this mail.

Opening Marathon
According to our plan we will organize 24 openings, one for each 
work, from December 1st. to the 24th. Each day during this period 
will be an opening for a new work and the exhibition will grow during 
December. After the opening marathon the exhibition will be on 
display for 14 days with all works running simultaneously. This might 
seem like a strange idea but it refers to a Nordic traditional 
Christmas calendar where you open one window each day in a paper 
calendar, each window containing a surprise.

Deadline
It is not much time left until the December 1st. So the deadline to 
contribute to the exhibition will be November 15th. But please feel 
free to submit material as soon as possible, we continually evaluate 
the material we receive and do basic testing on our computers

So blow the dust of your old 98030 or 386 and start testing your art. 
Just remember to step back a few years in version history of the 
software you would like to use.

1997 exhibition, technical specifications, and practical info and
