open_source.tv invites students from all academic environments, programmes and year groups to submit video works for an online group exhibition on station+ under the theme ‘BREAKING THROUGH’. The exhibition is curated by students from The Royal Danish Academy behind the project open_source.tv.
Breaking the silence, breaking the fourth wall, break a leg! BREAKING THROUGH encourages exploration and confrontation of established norms within the video medium. Simultaneously, the theme opens up opportunities to challenge and confront conventions in one’s own life, on a social level or globally. In architecture and design, BREAKING THROUGH can manifest quite directly and materially - as breaking through a wall to a neighbor or breaching a dam dividing an ecosystem: essentially, constructing through breakthroughs. A more metaphorical approach might involve confronting censorship or social norms in shared spaces. We believe this theme represents a sense of urgency, performativity, and channeling of energy, offering a relatable mode of expression.

ABOUT OPEN_SOURCE.TV
open_source.tv is an emerging platform for video art currently appearing at the Royal Danish Academy in Copenhagen. We show video works by and for students via already established video displays. The exhibited video works are contextualized both in the flow of information they interrupt and in the many differently functioning spaces they appear in. Our wish is to stimulate diverse learning environments and improve exposure opportunities for students. We are happy to collaborate with S+ for this online group exhibition.
Reach out through info.open.source.tv@gmail.com or DM @open_source.tv if you have any questions or just want to know more.
