📼Call for works - 1st VideoHackBo Experimental Showcase: Specters in the Hackforest

En español

📹 Experimental Video, AI, and Found Footage Showcase

Location: HackBo (Calle 44 # 8-50, apto 201 in Bogotá, Colombia).

Dates: May 5th – June 5th, 2026

The HackBosque opens its foliage of cables and its concrete walls to receive surviving images and synthetic visions. VideoHackBo is a call to inhabit the space with the trace, the error, the infinite loop, and the machine's hallucination.

If you have experimental video pieces, AI hallucinations, GIFs, found footage, or “random” files of maximum 10 minutes, this is the place to screen them.

Send us your pieces virtually.

• 🎍 Synthetic Visions (AI): Video generated or intervened by AI and post-human aesthetics.
• 🌿 Experimental Video: Visual essays, digital material processes, and non-linear narratives.
• 🌱 Orphan Files (Found Footage): Video rescued from old hard drives, old cameras, or interesting corners of the web.
• 🌾 Animated GIFs: Micro-ritmos and loops that bite their own tail.
• 🎋 Interferences: Glitch art, visual noise, and the aesthetics of error.

In recognition of creation and free culture:

• Physical Exhibition: Selected pieces will inhabit screens and projections in the HackBosque for one month.
• Digital Gallery: The videos will be part of a gallery with a permanent link on the HackBo website, creating a historical archive of visual experimentation in the space.
• Authorship: Each piece will have its respective credit and a link to the artist's portfolio.

Note on permissions: By participating, you authorize the exhibition of your work in the physical space and in the HackBo web gallery. Intellectual property always remains with the author.
