Film-makers, audio-visual artists, two lawyers, two curators and one producer will slam out two and one half hours of sound and video that explores appropriation, remix, and the use of public space in the electronic arts.

VIDEO SLAM commences with a two day workshop where participants will learn how to incorporate Creative Commons licensed content into a short film that will be produced on site at Horse Bazaar in under 48 hours. The finished work(s) will be screened at the VIDEO SLAM Remix Forum and re-appropriated live and on site.
