Interactivos? ‘10 BH ‘High End Low Tech has opened its international call for projects to select proposals to participate of the production workshop to be held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, between November 21st and December 8th.

The call will select up to 8 proposals - local, national and international - that develop and creatively apply simple and accessible technological resources in artistic and educational projects. Those interested may apply until October 5th through the online form available at: http://interactivos.marginalialab.com.

The event will provide materials and infrastructure necessary for the development of its selected proposals. Authors of the selected proposals that don’t live in Belo Horizonte will also get travelling tickets and lodging to participate of the two weeks workshop - to one member, in case the proposal is made by a group. The developing teams will be formed by volunteer collaborators, enrolled through a posterior international call (10/20-11/20), in an open and interdisciplinary methodology of exchange.

Activities will be guided by tutors Fernando Rabelo (Brazil), Kiko Mayorga (Peru) and Arturo Castro (Spain) - artists and educators with internationally renowned works, connected with important projects in development in fields related to the event’s theme.

Interactivos? ‘10 BH ‘High End Low Tech will also include a seminar with the participation of the instructors and invited collaborators, as a way to present and discuss different approaches about the proposed theme. At the end of the production workshop, the achieved results will be shown in a one week exhibition, enabling its access to the public.

Developed by the Spanish lab Medialab-Prado, the model for Interactivos? events has been replicated in different places around the world since 2006, forming a networked platform of initiatives related to this field.

The event is organized in Belo Horizonte through a partnership between Marginalia+Lab and the project Ocupar Espacos, integrating the cultural program Vivo Arte.Mov. The event is sponsored by VIVO through the State Law of Cultural Incentive of Minas Gerais. The event also counts with the collaboration of Medialab-Prado and Centro Cultural da Espanha em Sao Paulo.
