Hoi Polyfloyd en Moem,

Ik heb een opzet voor een call for art geschreven, staat voor nu op een 
pad: https://pad.ifcat.org/s/TjLRW0Qm7# Maar ik zal de tekst hieronder 
ook gewoon plakken.

Groet,

Dany


    We Hackers Yearn for art! To dress up the upcoming WHY2025
    hackercamp We are looking for artworks and are calling on artists,
    makers and hackers to give their creativity free reign to dress up
    the WHY2025 grounds with their creativity.

    *The Ask*
    The things that we look for artworks or installations that can be
    set up as a single object or a small cluster of objects and that
    connect to our visual theme of space, neon and synthwave. With a
    strong preference for artworks that include lighting effects.

    We do offer a budget of up to € 500 for artists to build their
    installations to cover material costs. If your idea is
    proportionally cooler higher budgets are possible. If you don’t have
    a workshop or storage space we can offer, in consultation, a place
    to build and store your works in advance of the event. This will be
    in the hackerspaces Bitlair, Amersfoort or Hackalot, Eindhoven. In
    both hackerspaces you will find a range of tools, equipment and a
    welcoming culture of creative people.

    When designing and building your artworks keep in mind that WHY2025
    is an outdoor festival and most works will be exhibited in the open
    air, in Dutch summer conditions (wet, dry, hot, sunny, everything is
    possible).

    *The Benefit*
    Exposure! You get to exhibit your idea at a four day event with
    about 3.500 visitors. It’s a bit of a cliché, we know. As a
    non-profit fully volunteer run event we unfortunately can’t pay you
    handsomely for your efforts. But you can count on a community of
    people that will be interested in your work, be happy to ask
    detailed questions, and will appreciate the minute nerdy details
    that costed you hours to figure out.

    Community! If you’re not already familiar with the hacker/maker
    community, prepare to be welcomed by a group of people that is open
    to cool works, that will lend a hand when needed, like to learn from
    you, or teach you a skill you don’t yet posses. A community that
    gathers in a network of Hackerspaces around the country to create
    cool things.

    *About WHY2025*
    WHY2025 is a nonprofit outdoors hacker camp taking place in
    Geestmerambacht, the Netherlands (approx 42km North of Amsterdam),
    on 8-12 August 2025. The event is organized for and by volunteers
    from the worldwide hacker community. Knowledge sharing,
    technological advancement, experimentation, connecting with your
    hacker peers, forging friendships and hacking (everything from
    computers to food) are at the core of this event.

    *How to propose your idea
    *If you want to propose your ideas or want to discuss options:
    please get in touch with the volunteers of Team:Deco to get the ball
    rolling.
