empyrean, Melinda Rackham’s online multi-user VRML world “that questions the nature of virtual space” has won the Sound-Space Award (for interactive sound works in the 3D space of the internet) at the Stuttgart Filmwinter (www.filmwinter.de) in Germany. Incorporating sound design by Mitchell Whitelaw with additional scripting and modelling by Horst Kiechle, empyrean can be viewed at www.subtle.net/empyrean. The jury commented, “Rackham’s visual style, use of sound, and her deep existential inquiry into the colonisation of cyberspace made her the Sound-Space jury’s unanimous choice.”

Submissions are open for CD-ROM and web-based work to be highlighted at MILIA, the interactive media market at Cannes from February 10-14. The AFC will showcase Australian work that has been completed in the last 12 months & distribute flyers on upcoming projects. Contact Rachel Sinclair, 02 9321 6436, [email protected]/.
