I'm finally getting around to writing my post about the June 24 premiere screening of "Public Domain," by the Ottawa-based SAW Video centre. Here's some details from the SAW website: "In June 2009, SAW Video commissioned 7 media artists to create new video works using public domain materials from the Film/Video/Audio Collection of Library and Archives Canada. The result is Public Domain, a programme of six new videos which, after its premiere in Ottawa on June 23rd, will tour across North America and Europe in 2011." The videos ranged from personalized documentary to abstract video art. The end results were quite impressive, as you might expect from the number of accomplished video artists that SAW managed to commission for the show. You can check for future tour dates and get more details about the show and the artists here: http://www.sawvideo.com/projects/publicdomain/index-en.php     UPDATE
