VP is Turning 40!

We Really Are Turning 40!
It’s a Media Arts MID-LIFE CRISIS!

On January 19th, 1983, a small collection of folks put their names on a piece of paper, making Video Pool Inc. a reality in the eyes of governments and funding bodies. Of course, we know there are signatories and historically significant moments, but we also know that histories and movements are not sudden events spawned out of nowhere, but rather the work and dedication of a multitude of individuals.

Media Arts + Technology Residency – Call for Applications

Video Pool Media Arts Centre is pleased to announce our upcoming Media Art + Technology Residency (MATR).

The theme for MATR this year will be (de)PRESS(i)ON, and is a part of a year-long program celebrating and exploring VP’s 40th anniversary, what we are referring to as our Mid-life Crisis™. The VP mid-life crisis™ series will feature programs from the six stages of a typical mid-life crisis: Denial, Passion; Replay, Depression, Withdrawal, and Acceptance.
For MATR, we are asking artists to “Press On” with us… to persist, continue and to advance technology-based art while delving into the past 4 decades of VP history.
