BETA TESTING IS

A live platform for new work and work still in progress - anything that can be screened or performed

WE BELIEVE

— the live component is essential, There’s nothing like an immediate response to your art from real people.
— We invariably combine music and visuals throughout the night. At all times your eyes and ears are fully engaged.
— Previous experience not required. Work has been shown / performed by first timers and by those who make their living from their art.
— Performances can be live or pre-recorded. Pieces tend to last from 2 minutes for short films, through to about 20 minutes for more involved stuff.
— We use a different theme each month to avoid repetition and set new challenges.
