SUMMARY:A/V Club
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, November 20\, 6:30-8:30pm\nFree\, sign up below\n  \nWe’ve shifted A/V Club to Wednesday nights for the remainder of the year! Future dates will be: \nNovember 20 \nDecember 18 \n  \nJoin us for the next round of Squeaky’s A/V Club\, a new monthly meetup for digital artists\, media artists\, sound artists\, video artists\, filmmakers\, animators\, game designers\, etc etc.  Come share works in progress\, talk skills and experiences\, and embrace the challenges of making media work in an informal\, constructive and exploratory environment. \nAt this meeting\, we’ll spend time watching and discussing each other’s pieces. \nHave a skill you want to share with the group? We’re looking for ways to share the little tidbits of wisdom we’ve picked up along the way from the various working methods we’ve employed while toiling in the studio. If you’ve found an interesting art hack\, have a passion for technical skill\, or find yourself knowledgeable in a topic you think might be good to pass along to fellow artists\, fill out this form and let us know! We’d like to include informal skill sharing as part of the A/V Club structure in the future. \nNote: This is an interdisciplinary group\, so if you’re only interested in talking about a single art form\, then this might not be the right group for you. If you’re interested in sharing\, learning\, exploring\, and experimenting across forms\, genres\, styles\, processes\, and mediums\, then you’ll be right at home! \n

SUMMARY:Call for Submissions: Shape of a Pocket
DESCRIPTION:Deadline: April 8th\, 2017\, 11:59pm \nThe pocket in question is a small pocket of resistance. A pocket is formed when two or more people come together in agreement. The resistance is against the inhumanity of the new world economic order. – John Berger\, The Shape of a Pocket \nSqueaky Wheel is now accepting submissions to a juried\, thematic group exhibition inspired by the idea of “pockets of resistance.” Titled after John Berger’s book\, The Shape of a Pocket\, we invite artists in Western New York\, working in all forms of media arts (from video\, film\, sound\, emergent technologies\, performance\, and cross disciplinary platforms) to submit proposals engaging with the theme. How can the form of a work be a site of resistance? How can collaborative practices inform our ideas of activism in art? What does it mean for resistance to happen in an exhibition context? Work can address specific topics\, or embody these ideas in broader ways; artists are invited to interpret this theme according their specific concerns and practices. Shape of a Pocket will open in July 2017 and will be comprised of a gallery exhibition\, and a screening / performance section. \nEligibility:\nSubmissions are open to artists and collectives residing in the 17 counties of Western New York that comprise: Allegany\, Cattaraugus\, Chautauqua\, Chemung\, Erie\, Genesee\, Livingston\, Monroe\, Niagara\, Ontario\, Orleans\, Schuyler\, Seneca\, Steuben\, Wayne\, Wyoming\, and Yates. We encourage artists at any stage of their career to apply. \nSelected artists will receive:\nArtist fees according to W.A.G.E. baselines when applicable.\nA complimentary Squeaky Wheel membership (one year).\nProposed technical and installation support for the display of the work. See available presentation/installation equipment here (based on availability.)\nA community feedback forum for their work. \nSubmission Process:\nInclude links to support material\, as instructed in the form.\nArtists may submit up to three works for consideration. Each submission requires a separate application.\nNotifications about your submission will be sent out by April 30\, 2017.\nIncomplete applications will be disqualified; please check all links before submitting.\nContact ekrem@squeaky.org with any questions.\nSubmit by deadline: April 8th\, 2017\, 11:59pm. \nAPPLICATION FORM\n
