International Open Call: CIRCE :The Black Cut: 3rd Presentation
The New International Open Call of Participation in the 3rd Presentation of CIRCE The Black Cut consists of 3 Phases and its new Theme is ‘CIRCE The Real Cut’. Keeping the Inspiration Sources of the whole work, as well as its Motivating Axes of «Freedom – Feeling – Codes», this year the call is focusing on the book ‘The Trauma of Birth’ (1924 / 1929), written by the psychoanalyst, Otto Rank, whereas its structure is based on the 3 orders of the interpretation of the soul; the Symbolic, the Imaginary, the Real (according to the theory of Jacques Lacan).

ABOUT the 3rd Presentation
Celebrating the Winter Solstice, the 3rd Presentation, will again take place on December 21st 2016 and, like the two previous years, will consist of the following three (3) fields:

• CIRCE Family Album | digital (music) album [release: 7MNS Music, type of license: Creative Commons / Free Download]
• Audio-Visual Exhibition
• Music Concert | Various New Artists

However, this year, the Presentation will have a unified and interactive, audio-visual character, and the audience will have the opportunity to enjoy all fields’ creations of the participants, on the same day and space. The venue, and more information about the Presentation, will be announced later within 2016.

ABOUT CIRCE
CIRCE :The Black Cut: is a project, or else, a platform or network, launched in March 2014 by composer Anna Stereopoulou and it is encouraging collaborations between its participants, coming all from different artistic, scientific or other fields and from various countries of the world, aiming to create new codes and kinds of expression and communication, while, at the same time, the project wishes to promote the participants’ work on a worldwide basis. Its main goal is creation via collaboration, expressing and listening to our Soul, rather than just the ‘collection’ of a big ‘number’ of people involved. Everyone is invited to create inspired by its main, on-going theme: NATURE (i.e. the Universe). This theme is expressed through various Ancient World Goddesses [nature], ‘The Black Square’ painting (Kazimir Malevich, 1915) [feeling], the graphic score of the composition ‘Treatise’ (Cornelius Cardew, 1963 to 1967) [freedom] and the ‘semia’ (symbols) found on the Phaistos Disk (circa 2nd millennium BC, Crete island, Greece) [code], as well as other Philosophical, Psychological and Scientific sources, found in the analysis (in the following link: http://wp.me/p2zRWp-dP).
