Glad it's not just me! ;)

However I've been wondering if it is more about excluding the 4th dimension. On the one hand it asks for time based practioners but then I notice that the theme is "holding time". This is an interesting idea and I've been wondering how you can have a moving image without time involved. Perhaps they mean works that are at the margins of what might be thought of as time based in some way. Theres no explanation tho but this seemed the most obvious answer.

It also occured to be that they might be wishing to exclude extra dimensional entities from participating. Although while I can understand such concerns given the times we are in, I doubt that the first thing they would be doing is making art if they make their way through. So basically this seemed just silly!

As for one dimensional art, I think theres often far too much of it around already! ;)

love

Freya
