Experiments with Science: Science and art are often consigned to separate social spheres, and the intersection of science with cinema frequently evokes memories of classroom films and epic television nature documentaries. While these forms can be informative and at times spectacular they tend to prioritize goals of education and entertainment over aesthetic experimentation and critical engagement. For this screening, the MisALT Screening Series is interested in presenting experimental films and videos that take their inspiration from Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Astronomy, Mathematics, & Institutions of Science and brings them out of the sphere of edutainment to make bold and original artistic statements that push the boundaries of scientific cinema. We are primarily interested in short to mid-length works (0-45minutes) but will consider work of longer durations. We are currently capable of exhibiting pieces on DVD, VHS, Super-8mm, 8mm, 16mm, or as digital files.
To submit please fill out the submission form and either send it along with a preview DVD, artist statement, and project description to:

Vulgar Politics: Electoral politics frequently brings out the worst tendencies of American culture. Politicians and their proxies intersect with 24-hour news media to create an unending spectacle of antagonism, pandering, and barely-coded appeals to the prejudices permeates through much of the United States. In recognition of this year’s American presidential elections, the MisALT Screening Series is soliciting submissions of experimental, avant-garde, and underground films and videos that engage with political culture in all its vitriol and absurdity. We are interested in work that critiques current political media and challenges the status quo to make the proposition that a better politics is possible.
