[Myriam Thyes]

CALL FOR ENTRIES (please spread):


FLAG METAMORPHOSES

http://www.thyes.com/flag-metamorphoses

Next deadline: January 30, 2007.
_______________________________________________

Continuously growing and animated by as many participating
artists from across the globe as possible, the flags of all
nations in the world are morphed into each other through
flash animation.
Using digital media, we can make the symbols dance:
Between each two flags, scenes appear that show an aspect
of the relations between the two countries.

This series of animations is an exploration into the meaning
of imagery on flags, aiming to create interrelated associations
through questioning, reassessing, fluidizing and re-mixing of
diverse national iconography.

To find out how to participate with or without knowledge of
Flash, please visit: www.thyes.com/flag-metamorphoses
