For full information on the _c0da show at Object + Thought, see the full entry below this one, with the _c0da logo in it. This entry is an update on submitting your work.SUBMISSION FEES: At this point, depending on where you are in Colorado, submission fees may or may not arrive in time in the mail to Liberty Shellman by the day of jurying. That is okay! NERDA is more interested in making sure that your work is viewed by the jurors... that is what is important in this experience. We'd rather recieve your submission fee late than deny you the opportunity to have your work juried.
On the good faith premise, we'll accept all submissions for jurying, but we DO expect to receive your submission fee within a week of jurying. Please do not take this opportunity to skip the payment process and wait to see if you've been juried into the show. We trust all artist folk! :)
ONLINE SUBMISSIONS: We are still accepting submissions through NERDA's email account (see full details below), and to be more clear, anything that is a visual representation of your piece(s) will suffice, so long as you include the required info on you and the piece itself. This means that if all you have is a photo of your work - even if it's multimedia installation or some other environment - it's okay. Any way that you can present your work - whether it be a .jpg, a .mov, a series of images (3D works), a link to an online video or online website with the work you want to enter, or a combination of any of the above - it's fine with NERDA. We understand that many new media works are hard to capture with just an image, or just a video, and that's fine. As long as it's up to your standards and can give the jurors an idea of what it is, it's fine.
Additionally, descriptions of how your piece works (especially if it is interactive) would be helpful in case the jurors have questions about them.
And if you're this kind of type... yes, we are accepting artist statements (brief) about the work if you have one and if the jurors want to read them.
METRO STATE UPLOADING OF SUBMISSIONS: As a Metro State student, you are proabably alredy aware that we have public server space on the Macs in the digital art labs. NERDA has placed a folder in there for you to submit your work there if it's easier for you. Just follow these paths (and then get your payment to either Salina, Ryan, Liberty or Jeromie):
Public Folder (on desktop) > Art Server Space > Dolan > NERDA > _c0da submissions
PHYSICAL DROP-OFF: NERDA has gotten communication from AHEC Facilities that due to some windows being replaced in the Arts Building, they will be taking over Gallery 199 as a temporary storage space for their construction materials next week.
That trumps our previous reservation in Gallery 199 for physical drop-off of art works. HOWEVER, officers and volunteers of NERDA will still be setting up a table outside of Gallery 199 for physical drop-off and submission fees. We will be storing the works in our advisor's office overnight, and moving them to a conference room the next morning for jurying.
So, if your work is super large, you might want to consider photographing it and submitting it that way. That would be best for everyone. We'll still be outside Gallery 199 for accepting submission fees. Thanks!
++++++++
We'll announce those that are juried into the show next week Wednesday, Oct. 14th, by email and by the blog. We'll also be sending everyone .jpg's of the invites with artist names on the invites so you can forward it to your friends & family, and have a file for your CV. Further instructions and communications will ensue after the jurying, with those juried into the show, in regards to physical drop-off at Object + Thought. NERDA wishes everyone the best in submitting!++++++++
