Field notes
The page lays out a simple path: select one of four themes or propose another, choose a medium, and send an idea through the form. It welcomes film, images, writing, music, and interactive work, and says creators can work remotely with online reference materials. AIGC is encouraged but optional; the FAQ says creators retain authorship, while specific usage terms are deferred to future competition rules.
