START MOBILE ANNOUNCES GLOBAL CALL FOR NEW ART
HARNESSING MACROMEDIA FLASH LITE FROM ADOBE
world's premier CELL PHONE ART GALLERY seeks NEW ART FOR A NEW MEDIUM
March 14, 2006 – San Francisco, CA. START MOBILE, the world's premier CELL PHONE ART GALLERY, today announced a global call for NEW ART FOR A NEW MEDIUM. Using Flash Lite technology from Adobe, artists worldwide are invited to submit NEW ART for global distribution via START MOBILE.
"There are nearly two billion cell phones currently in use globally, and today's state-of-the-art mobile devices possess more computational power than NASA had in 1969 when they put a man on the moon!", according to START MOBILE founder John Doffing. "This is not just a communications revolution, but potentially a creative revolution as well. Just imagine - BILLIONS of personal devices capable of displaying high resolution digital art, with the processing power to facilitate the inclusion of video, sound, music, and interactivity. This is NOT about video games or screensavers or sitcoms on your phone - this is about the creation of truly NEW ART for a NEW MEDIUM."
Until recently, technological complexity and a lack of device homogeneity precluded most artists from creating compelling NEW ART for the mobile medium. Mobile phones differ in terms of displays, processors, and input methods, which made it challenging even for professional mobile developers to create compelling interactive content in a time- and cost-efficient manner.
With Flash Lite, however, artists globally have an unprecedented ability to create truly NEW ART for the mobile medium.
"The mobile phone has become an integral part of our global culture, and a medium for every kind of content, including art," said Gary Kovacs, vice president of Product Management and Marketing for Mobile and Devices at Adobe. "With Flash shipping on over 65 million mobile devices and consumer electronics products, artists working with Start Mobile are assured that their work will be accessible to a huge worldwide audience."
