Call for Photo and Video Submissions
HEMPHILL is pleased to present two projects by free[space]collective in the exhibition Artist-Citizen, Washington DC,
on view June 5 through July 27, 2013. Artists Michael Dax Iacovone and
Billy Friebele utilize the city and its residents as an essential tool
for the creation of their work. The DC Photo Grid is an aggregated map of the city generated from user-submitted photographs, and the DC Crowd-Sourced Video Project offers
a constantly looping portrait of the city as viewed by its inhabitants.
We invite you to participate by submitting your photos and videos
following the instructions below.
DC Photo Grid
The space of Washington DC is made up of government buildings, businesses, and domestic dwellings. What's left over is the public space of parks, streets, and sidewalks. This is a crowd sourced public archive of that free space.
Instructions:
The photo must be taken within the border of Washington DC.
The photo must be taken in outdoor public space.
You must locate the square mile the photo was taken in and indicate the mile along with the submission.
You must enter the date the photo was taken.
Click to SUBMIT a photo.
DC Crowd-Sourced Video Project
This evolving participatory video project will be exhibited at HEMPHILL for the Artist/Citizen exhibition in June and July of 2013. We will edit video submissions together, fading them on top of each other to create a time-based portrait of the city. The most recent submission will be edited into the looping video displayed in the gallery, replacing the oldest video on the loop.
Instructions:
Videos must be of public space in Washington, DC.
Please do not exceed 1 minute in duration.
Video can be submitted either by emailing a youtube or vimeo link to dcphotogrid@gmail.com or you may send video to this email address using a file sharing site such as yousendit.com or wetransfer.com.

free[space]collective Mission:
We see the city as an evolving system in a constant state of change. Each person’s experience within the changing city is different and valuable. We are interested in initiating dialog through encounters in public space and using art as a vehicle for community engagement and interaction. We believe in starting a conversation, and then setting it free to evolve with the input of the people who share those spaces.HEMPHILL

Sharon's Letter
Dear Friends,
Please donate $30+ TODAY to fight cancer! Read below to see why!
In
2012, I participated in the Marin Olympic Triathalon with Team in
Training. I swam .93 miles, biked 22 miles, and ran 6.2 miles in 3.5
hours. In support of my efforts, 49 people helped me raise over $2,500
to find better cures and treatments for cancer.
It is 2013 and it is time for me to up the ante! I am going to do TWO Olympic Triathalons, with Team in Training, which have more difficult courses and a larger monetary goal of $3000.
May 5th - Wildflower, CA - .93 mile swim, 24.8 mile bike, 6.2 mile run
June 30th - Pacific Crest, OR - .93 mile swim, 28 mile bike, 6.2 mile run
Last
fundraising letter, I told you all about how I have a piece of my ass
where my toe used to be. Threatened by a possible future spreading
Melanoma, half of my toe was chopped off and a piece of my backside was
put in its place. But that's ancient history.
Unfortunately,
what isn't history...is cancer. It is still kicking around affecting
the people we know and love. I can think of three of my peers (women in
their 30's) who had to endure chemotherapy this year. And that pisses
me off!
If cancer also makes you mad, take 2 minutes and donate $30+ to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society from my fundraising page:
In the great words of my favorite author Dr. Seuss,
“You're off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting,
So... get on your way!”
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting,
So... get on your way!”
So, I'm going to take my half-toe,
And we're going to have fun.
Kicking Cancer's ass
As I Swim, Bike, and Run!
Thank
you for the love and support. Even if you can only donate one dime,
please add your donation to the cause. Ever cent counts.
Sincerely,
Sharon Pieczenik
