Outdoor Vision Fest ’16...

posted by Amaya Hoke

Marking the end of the Spring semester, Santa fe University of Art and Design’s annual Outdoor Vision Fest approaches on April 29 with a variety of visual and physically interactive art displays. From past caged performers to creative film projection to edible symbols of the written word, OVF is an exhibition created by and for nearly every department at SFUAD. Jackalope Magazine interviewed OVF Executive Producer and screenwriting professor Terry Borst via email about the upcoming event. Jackalope Magazine: Can you start by describing to us what Outdoor Vision Fest is? How many years has Outdoor Vision Fest been an event on the Santa Fe University of Art and Design campus? Terry Borst: Outdoor Vision Fest® (OVF®) began as an experimental collaboration between The Film School and Graphic Design (when it still included Digital Arts) in Spring 2011. Before it debuted, Photography and Studio Arts began contributing installations, and the rest—as they say—is history. Outdoor Vision Fest is an annual one-night-only on-campus event that showcases the creativity of students developing cutting-edge media installations that break down barriers between artistic disciplines. Use of Projection media and creation of an outdoor experience are really the only requirements for OVF installations, so everything from performance to motion graphics to multi-channel video to sculpture to sound-and-picture that interact with the audience may comprise a piece. JM: What kind of outside participation is involved? I’ve heard that Meow Wolf is a regular participant in OVF. What role do they, or any other outside involvement, play? TB: Meow Wolf has never participated in OVF. One can actually argue that some of OVF’s DNA is in Meow Wolf, as several current students and OVF alumni have contributed to the design and development of Meow Wolf’s new “House of Eternal Return.” We’re...

Water Conservation Documentary...

posted by Franco Romero

While taking a field ecology class at Santa Fe Community College several years ago, Film School Junior Johnny Vigil became interested in Santa Fe’s water system. As a part of the class, students took field trips to locations where they would collect samples and make observations. During a field trip to Santa Fe’s reservoir, Vigil said he felt his eyes opened to something he’d never considered. “I guess I always assumed we just had this magic pipe that would pump our water,” Vigil said. “After taking that trip, I saw all of the wildlife. It really changed me. I saw the delicate ecosystem that provides our water.” Vigil said he was especially struck by the realization that the city’s water comes from a natural source. After the trip, he began to take notice of his own daily water usage. He started trying to find new ways to conserve water, such as simply turning off the sink while he brushed his teeth or taking shorter showers. Now, Vigil is at work on a short documentary about Santa Fe’s water usage. In particular, Vigil is attempting to highlight the ways Santa Fe conserves its water. Additionally, he said he hopes to show individuals how they can be conservative in terms of their own personal water usage. “It got me thinking,” Vigil said. “The water in Santa Fe is really precious. Is it sustainable?” The documentary will feature B-roll footage of the reservoir, which Vigil will be obtaining this week. Additionally, Vigil said he hopes to interview city officials in order to learn about the city’s methods of water conservation. “I really just want to inform my peers, my family and our city,” Vigil said. “Maybe I can even make it educational for students in elementary schools,...

Explore Tent Rocks This Spring Break

posted by Kyleigh Carter

Being stuck on campus for spring break can be a bummer, so why not get off campus and go have an adventure at the Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument. The park is approximately a 40 minute drive from campus and is a little over an hour hike. The hike is pretty easy, but dogs are not allowed so leave your furry friends at home. I would recommend good walking shoes, a light jacket, a water bottle, a snack and sun screen because remember you are about 5,570 feet to 6,760 feet above sea level. Spring break would be the perfect time to go explore this enchanting landmark and be reminded of how amazing New Mexico can...
