[Frameworks] EXPERIMENTAL film festivals???

I propose the following:

1. Formal constraints: The references of work shown are not primarily to 
narrative cinema or broadcast television but to the result of artist's working 
processes.
2. Programming constraints: The diversity of work screened demonstrates a 
commitment to risk and experiment in programming.
3. Format constraint: There's a clear commitment ot film projection.
4. Theoretical constraint: There's a familiarity with a history of artists' work 
in film that is motivated by theoretical concerns (and thus bears an affinity 
with some of video's history).
5. Compromise acknowledgement: The conditions of projection of work is itself 
acknowledged to be, in many cases, a compromise, a necessity for promoting work 
that, as often as not, was not intended for theatrical projection of the kind it 
is receiving.

That would begin my answer.

Bernie
