<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">This
Is Not Art Warming Up for 2007</font></font></strong></p>
<p> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Plans
for Australia's premier festival of independent, emerging and experimental
arts, This Is Not Art, are on the boil. Over the October long weekend
Newcastle will embrace an influx of energy and innovation as emerging
and established artists, writers and performers amass with audiences
from across the country to argue, perform, network, skill-share
and dance.</font></p>
<p> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">"This
is a really interesting program" commented Festival Coordinator,
Marni Jackson. "There is plenty of hands-on interactive play
time, the embers of some heated discussion around cash vs integrity
in the arts, and little satellite events which are happening in
the cracks of the festival program and festival venues. Full of
surprises! The schedule is looking tighter than ever, we can't wait
for it to kick off."</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Festival
directors are currently locking down the program details, due for
release in August. The program of over 180 free events encompasses
the National Young Writers' Festival, Electrofringe, Sound Summit
and Critical Animals.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> With
so much going on, there is plenty to talk about. Major themes emerging
from the program include interactivity and brand new technologies,
money and integrity in arts practice, DIY sounds and publishing,
and ethics and accessibility in arts and electronic music. Events
include, but are not limited to: performances, workshops, interdisciplinary
panel discussions, readings, live broadcasts, performances, exhibitions,
interactive spaces, gigs, a book launch during afternoon tea in
an op-shop, and the biggest showcase of small and independent press
in Australia</font><strong></strong></p>
