Call for Submissions

Vector Festival 2024: Screening

We invite the submission of time-based video, film, and moving image works for screening consideration.

Vector Festival 2024’s thematic, too fragile to hold, is developed by Miriam Arbus, and looks to explore the combined experiences of migrating species, weather patterns, geopolitical scrambling, and algorithmic data processing. We encourage artists to explore artworks that remind us that all is cosmic, symbiotic, interconnected, intersected and intertwined. All programming and artworks included in the festival are asked to respond to the festival thematic.
