documented on video, film and the new media; studies on project methodology
based on the application of audiovisual tools and digital systems for
architecture; research on teaching applications; a discussion on new theories.

> THEME

The theme of the 2001 edition of the International Festival of Architecture
on Video is BEYOND MEDIA/OLTRE I MEDIA. What is the role of architectural
communication technology today? How do architects use the new media? What
new patterns are emerging in connection with architectural technology? What
vocational prospects are there for the new generations? The problems raised
by the arrival of the new media lead to an exploration of the various
spheres of contemporary production, from television to the cinema and the
Internet, providing plenty of room for research on digital communication
technology. The dissemination of communications systems redefines
professional roles and develops methods for planning, producing and using
architecture. BEYOND MEDIA/OLTRE I MEDIA will place the emphasis on the
most significant aspects of the changes produced by the media. It will
present a picture of the most interesting research and draw attention to
the consequences of using the media, with a view to defining the new
application scenarios.


> CALL FOR ENTRIES

Within the programme of exhibitions and meetings, as every year, the
Festival will host a selection of the best works of communication in
architecture. All the authors of videos and digital works dedicated to
architecture may take part in the 2002 edition of the International
Festival of Architecture on Video. There are expected to be recent works,
with no limitations as to provenance or duration, divided up into the
following categories:

> STUDENTS. For works of communication in architecture made within the
learning environment and for research conducted by amateur authors.
> PROFESSIONALS. For works developed in the professional planning context
and with the aim of communicating both projects and completed architectural
works.
> DOCUMENTS. For general documentation works, analyses, dissemination of
architecture, of the city and the built environment.
> TECHNOLOGY. For works of communication and illustration of new
technologies for the management and transformation of the built environment.

Participation is free of charge. It is possible to enter video works (in
VHS, Beta, DVD, miniDV, AVI, MPG); websites and other artworks on CD ROM
(PC system); and projects for multimedia events and installations to be set
up during the exhibition.

following:

> the category under which the work is to be entered;
> three sample pictures of the work;
> a written introduction to the work (approx 150 words);
> a short biographical profile of the author (approx 100 words).

The works will be appraised on the basis of their communicative efficacy,
