A part of FUTURESONIC 2007 /// 10-12 May, Manchester /// Features a sensational line-up of over 300 inspirational artists from around the world at more than 30 major events, crammed into 3 days of sounds, sights and delights. /// http://www.futuresonic.com /////////// MEDIASHED FT METHODS OF MOVEMENT, THE DUELLISTS /// An acrobatic parkour competition between two late-night traceurs by MediaShed ft Methods of Movement, staged overnight in the Arndale shopping centre, filmed using only the in-house CCTV system, to be shown on the screens inside the shopping centre as a part of Futuresonic 2007's Art For Shopping Centres exhibition, with an original soundtrack by Hybernation. /////////// A free-media / free-running project by MediaShed ft Methods of Movement, commissioned by Manchester's Futuresonic 2007 festival. /////////// Parkour, or freerunning, involves fluid, uninterrupted movement, adapting motion to obstacles in the environment. Like free-media, freerunning makes use of and re-energises the infrastructure of the city. /////////// Free-media is best thought of as a means of doing art, making things or just saying what you want for little or no financial cost by using the public domain and free software and recycled equipment. It is also about saying what you want "freely", using accessible media that can be taken apart and reused without unnecessary restrictions and controls - "free as in free speech". /// http://www.mediashed.org /// http://www.futuresonic.com
