EXPERIMENTAL HALF-HOUR ( USA )

Experimental Half-Hour is a cable television show that showcases local and international musicians, dancers, comedians, writers, and performance artists. Our collaborators include established professional artists as well as new performers that excite and inspire us. In addition to broadcasting locally and maintaining a free Internet archive, we engage with the community by curating live multimedia performances, screening episodes at local festivals, and strongly encouraging public participation at tapings.  Experimental Half-Hour facilitates a connection between artists and the often underestimated resources our community provides to create, document, and share work with others. Conceptual growth is stimulated by access to a broad range of new and old technologies. A video might be shot in HD, then edited on an analogue mixer. A visual artist might have the opportunity to play with a green screen for the first time.

EYEWORKS ( USA )

The Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation presents a program of short films selected from the 2010 and 2011 festival lineups. Held annually in Chicago, Eyeworks is a festival focusing on abstract animation and unconventional character animation. Festival programs showcase outstanding experimental animation of all sorts: classic films, new works and rare masterpieces. This Eyeworks screening at SKVER has a special focus on abstraction, surreal cartoons, and non-narrative animation.

FIJUK NETWORK

The Fijuk network is an intricate web of independent festivals, publishers and artists initiated by Novo Doba festival in Serbia. Alternative comics is not the only common denominator between the different protagonists in the network, but certainly the dominant taste. Fijuk is an alchemical factory for promotion, collaboration, experimentation and publicist exploration of comics and related art forms. This year Fijuk is arranging laboratories for artistic mishaps and chance encounters on Novo Doba festival (Serbia), Škver (Croatia), Crack fumetti dirompenti (Italy), Metelkova Mesto anniversary (Slovenia), Otompotom (Croatia) and Angouleme festival (France), as well as publishing the periodical literary review Pionir. On Škver the Fijuk laboratory will set up a silkscreen workshop and collect energies from all actors of the shipyards.
