hello all - we are coming around to the 6th birthday of the scanlines forum :balloon: :partying_face: ( which was born 20th april 2020…)

in the past we have celebrated this with a showcase live_stream of av works created by this community.. and we’re keen to run this again this year! im traveling again in April so lets start gathering submissions now and will host the belated birthday screening in early May when im home:

  • 2026-05-10T20:20:00Z→2026-05-10T22:20:00Z

(should be sunday afternoon/evening in most timezones)

heres the brief:

  • please send me a short video (around 10 minutes or less) of something you have created in the last (two) years - it could be anything, from a finished av piece to a recording talking about a process or project…

  • you can submit using this form . submissions will be open up until a day or so before

the past events have been really fun and wholesome so i hope many of you can join us this time !

ps hopfully we gonna be live-streaming from our own peertube instance videos.scanlines.xyz

I’m sure it’s a ton of work for you to organise Tim, I do appreciate it. The get-together itself is really enjoyable.

…uhm?! - i have toooooo many ideas, none of them made it out of my head yet - arrrrrgh!…

…i really hope it will not be like last time (missed the deadline) or the time before that (made something very simple and much too short in the very last moment)…

…if i miss the deadline - and even more if i dont: you are up! - make something, contribute!…

regarding deadline… ideally should be in around 12hrs before the screening starts, but i will do my best to include any latecomers upto and during the stream :))
