The roulette wheel has 36 fields for 36 videos, and the roulette ball will select some videos among the first 36 submissions which include works coming from Image ARCHIVE.

A counter-flow in which small initiatives can lead to big successes.

The exterior spaces of the MAXXI in Rome, transformed into a garden of green isles by the project WHATAMI by studio stARTT www.startt.it, will host the summer events that focus on the diverse aspects of contemporary art. Image ARCHIVE was invited to create an event focused on a series of videos and films that would expose the public to some of the most relevant and experimental projects, works and ideas in the architectural scene internationally. The result is a awe-inspiring journey, divided into six evenings from July to October, which is a testimony to the arduous search for forms of expression and the emergence of a new language in the discourse which Image ARCHIVE has observed for more than a decade.<br /> <br /> <img width="500" height="375" border="0" src="http://www.image-web.org/tags/2011071401.YAPMAXXI.jpg" alt="" /><br /> <br /> The program <strong>ARCHITECTURE VISIONS. Erratic language in architectural narratives</strong>, curated by <strong>Marco Brizzi </strong>and <strong>Paola Ricco</strong>, consists of three themed sections, each accompanied by a speaker. <strong>"PLAYING ON THE SCENE"</strong> (which takes place on the 19th and 26th of June, at 8:30 pm) demonstrates interaction, sometimes playful and spectacular, within architecture and urban space. <strong>"THE ARCHITECT'S MICRONARRATIVES"</strong> (September 13th and 20th at 8:30 pm) exposes the brief forms that accompany communication of a thought or project in architecture. Finally with <strong>"BUILDINGS IN THE SPOTLIGHT"</strong> (October 4th and 11th at 8:30 pm) we observe an architecture that manifests through video.<br /> <br /> Image ARCHIVE <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.image-web.org/archive"><u>www.image-web.org/archive</u></a> </font><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">is the archive that <strong>Image </strong> has dedicated since 1997 to the collection, preservation and appreciation of architectural videos.

On this occasion, the city of Treviso will host the 5th edition of the <em>Cinema-Architettura</em> film show, curated by <strong>Beatrice Ciruzzi</strong>. Starting November 9 and for the four following weeks, a series of conversations on the topic of the house -as observed and interpreted by cinema in the last decades- will take place at Edera multiplex. In four evenings, when art films will be put side by side with videos and short films, the relationship of man with the house he inhabits will be discussed, every time from a different perspective.<br> <br> <img src="http://www.image-web.org/tags/2010110901.CASAMODERNA.jpg" width="500" height="375" border="0"><br> <br> The series, which will benefit from the presence of four observers (<strong>Giancarlo Carnevale</strong>, Dean of the Faculty of Architecture at IUAV in Venice; <strong>Carlo Montanaro</strong>, director of the Fine Arts Academy in Venice; <strong>Valeria Farinati</strong> from the Academy of Architecture in Mendrisio; <strong>Marco Brizzi</strong>, director of the <strong>BEYOND MEDIA</strong> festival <a href="http://www.beyondmedia.it" target="_blank">www.beyondmedia.it</a> in Florence), is the outcome of a cooperation among the <strong>IUAV Video Library</strong> in Venice, the <strong>Carlo Montanaro Archive</strong> in Venice, the <strong>Archive of the Modern</strong> at the Academy of Architecture in Mendrisio and <strong>Image ARCHIVE</strong> <a href="http://www.image-web.org/archive" target="_blank">www.image-web.org/archive</a> in Florence, the latter being featured in the evening of November 30. <em>Inception</em>, the last film by <strong>Christopher Nolan</strong>, will be cue for a discussion that <strong>Marco Brizzi</strong> will conduct by taking advantage of the interpretations offered by some works collected in the <strong>Image ARCHIVE</strong>: <em>La petite maison. An architectural seduction</em> by <strong>Tânia Moreira David</strong> (UK 2009) architecture by <strong>Skene Catling de la Peña</strong>; <em>Steel Homes</em> by <strong>Eva Weber</strong> (UK 2008); <em>Un tetto sulla testa</em> by <strong>Leone Contini</strong> (IT 2008); <em>Habitat</em> by <strong>Emanuela Ascari</strong> (IT 2009). The topic of the house is interpreted as an intangible, though physical, memory&rsquo;s realm where the most intimate and inaccessible substance of human beings can be retrieved. The house is where the deepest dreams, those that cannot be easily manipulated, are stored; and it represents a constant reference for architectural design research.<br> <br> </p> Beyondmedia 16/11/2010 http://moraccini.homelinux.org/beyondmedia/index.php?pg=15&l=eng <p> <strong>Image</strong> <a href="http://www.image-web.org" target="_blank">www.image-web.org</a> is pleased to announce a new cooperation, as part of its activity of enhancement of video resources in the field of architecture.

The international symposium on film studies, curated by<strong> Leonardo Quaresima</strong> and dedicated to the theme <em>The film canon</em> (Udine, Italy, March 16-18), will be followed by the <strong>VIII MAGIS International Film Studies Spring School</strong> (Gorizia, Italy, March 19-24) which will offer a program of screenings on the theme <em><strong>Audiovisual geographies.

As the next edition of the BEYOND MEDIA festival is being prepared for next December, this new<em><strong> VISIONS EXTENSION</strong></em> will offer once again an occasion for observing contemporary video productions in the field of architecture as well as for reflecting upon the manifold interferences with film language.

And they decided to do so in a rather provocative manner, by following the stories and daily chores of Guadalupe Acedo, the home's housekeeper, and of the other people who look after the building.

Organized by <strong>Image </strong><a href="http://www.image-web.org" target="_blank">www.image-web.org</a>, and curated by <strong>Marco Brizzi</strong>, <strong>BEYOND MEDIA</strong> has been constantly observing, since 1997, the development of the systems of communication in the field of architecture by evaluating their impact on contemporary architectural production and by promoting quality and research in the advance of communication media for design projects.<br /> <br /> The theme for the 9th edition of <strong>BEYOND MEDIA</strong> is <strong>VISIONS</strong>. It seems that, in the last few years, contemporary architects have lost their <strong>ability to pursue grand visions</strong> and to construct <strong>a broad outlook</strong> that engages complex transformations of the built environment.  They are unable to construct thoughts and a conscience <strong>beyond that which is usual, empirical, and visible</strong>. The massive production and consumption of <strong>architectural images</strong> has resulted in a greater proximity to design issues by the general public. But at the same time, images alter the way people conceive of architecture, and they affect the ability and the opportunity to <strong>generate visions</strong>, and hence <strong>theories</strong>, that are deeply rooted in our time and, at the same time, receptive to new, possible scenarios.<br /> <br /> On this website you will find the <a href="http://www.beyondmedia.it/index.php?pg=14">call for submissions</a>. <strong>Deadline is January  31, 2009</strong>.</p> Beyondmedia 03/12/2009
