Objectified is a feature-length documentary about our complex relationship with manufactured objects and, by extension, the people who design them. It’s a look at the creativity at work behind everything from toothbrushes to tech gadgets. It’s about the designers who re-examine, re-evaluate and re-invent our manufactured environment on a daily basis. It’s about personal expression, identity, consumerism, and sustainability.

If there's anything XLR8R has in common with Pitchfork and Create Digital Music it's that we're all searching for music's future. Whether it be ear-catching trends, ground-breaking ideas, or just something we've never heard before, our collective editorial teams are hard at work to bring you what's next in sonic evolution. Keeping with our common goals, the three publications have joined forces along with TV network Syfy to curate a mix of taste-making tunes to accompany the launch of their brand-new series entitled Caprica. The 13-track compilation, called Music for Our Future, runs the gamut of futuristic genres through tracks from Lusine, The Field, Tyondai Braxton, Untold, Atlas Sound, and Hudson Mohawke, among others.

Artists from all over the world will attempt to create an accurate representation of the world in 2010. The goal of the exhibition is to create a physical wall of photos that creates an alternate world of our lives in 2010.

In a nutshell: you. We're looking for people with different cultures, ethnicities, geographic locations, and lifestyles. This is for anyone. You do not have to consider yourself an "artist" to participate.

On the 9th of July, we will host an exhibition where at least one photo from each artist will be displayed. The walls of the gallery will be completely covered with the photos, creating a massive photographic installation.

How to participateParticipation is easy. All you need is a camera (digital or film). After you sign up to participate, you can start shooting immediately. In the end, you'll be sending us up to 24 4x6 inch prints of your photos
