Forget Idol, its all about you and your Icon! Six Bears of Separation want to give aspiring, young Australian artists, designers, musicians, film makers and performers the chance to travel the globe and meet the individual who has been their greatest inspiration.

The concept is simple, testing the six degrees of separation theory (but this time over a beer), four Australians get a maximum of six meetings to ultimately connect with their celebrity inspiration. To help you pocket $12,000 to cover expenses, but you need to achieve your goal in 18 days. Your adventure gets recorded by a camera crew and you can also gain some serious exposure for your work and expand your professional network.

Interested Aussies aged 18-39 in the creative industries can check out how to submit a casting tape at

ART VS MACHINE

Computers can do lots of fun stuff as evidenced by Tetris, Facebook and Widgets. But art? Yes We Can!

To prove machines have got the skills to be creative and functional, Electrohype 2008 celebrates computer based art. Now in its fifth incarnation, the biennial festival this year takes the theme of machines working toward a singular purpose.

Featuring work from 10 artists from 6 different countries, the festival showcases work that in a unique way are complex in their own small universes and makes us reconsider what we take for as given.

On now through to 25 January, 2009 at Malm Konsthall, S:t Johannesgatan 7, Malm, Sweden.
