Art/Music Submissions
We are always interested in receiving submissions from artists and musicians for possible inclusion in our events. For more details on how to submit your work, please see below.
VISUAL ART
We are open to receiving a wide range of visual art submissions, including anything that we would define as digital art. Please see our About Digital Art page for more information.
However, since AMODA currently has no permanent exhibition space, there are some types of visual art that are more practical for us to present than others. In particular, we are seeking artwork to display in our Digital Showcase Series. The Digital Showcase is a one night only event featuring live electronic music and visual art in a social setting, such as a bar or nightclub.
The forms of art that work well in these events are video art, computer animation, digital prints, performance pieces, live video, multimedia installations, and interactive pieces. To submit visual art for our Digital Showcases Series (or a general art submission), please send an email to visual.art@amoda.org. (See the submission guidelines below for more info on what to include in your email.)
MUSIC
There are two types of AMODA events that feature musicians. The Digital Showcase Series features live electronic music, DJ sets, and visual art in a social setting, such as a bar or nightclub. The music in these events typically involves beats or other fun, accessible elements. To submit music for our Digital Showcase Series, please send an email to showcase@amoda.org. (See the submission guidelines below for more info on what to include in your email.)
The other AMODA program that features musicians is the Performance Series. These shows present digital performance art and experimental music in a seated, contemplative setting. The music in these events tends to be improvised, ambient, drone-like, or textural in nature. To submit music for our Performance Series, please send an email to performance@amoda.org. (See the submission guidelines below for more info on what to include in your email.)
FLYER ILLUSTRATION
Each Digital Showcase features a different flyer illustrator. If you would like your work to be considered, please contact our Creative Team Director at design@amoda.org. (See the submission guidelines below for more info on what to include in your email.)
