<nettime-ann> Fwd: [NetBehaviour] CfP: running as creative practice (deadline 20 April)


.
Calling all artists, filmmakers, performers, walkers, runners,
anti-runners, sceptics and those allergic to exercise and everyone
else from all walks of life:


Hello. My name is Kai and I am an artist and PhD grad from the Slade.
I would like to invite you to join us at the inaugural Run Run Run: A
Festival Of Running 1.0. <http://kaisyngtan.com/2014/03/r3fest/> We
are calling for 8-minute papers, artworks, activities, participation
(deadline 20 April). I am also curating an exhibition entitled
'Running London' and am looking for artworks. One of the aims of the
Festival is to show that running - just like the cultural tradition of
walking that you may be familiar with - can be creative and can have
mileage as a subject matter and creative methodology. Feel free to
spread this CfP to your colleagues, friends and students. It will be
great if you could join us - via Skype even, if you cannot physically
swing by - in this party. Thank you.

and disciplines flock (and run) together to celebrate everything about
running. Are you ready? On your mark. Make a mark. Make history.
