Call for Submissions

Sounding Landscapes: a multi-channel audio event

http://www.holophon.ca/submissions.html

This call is for sonic art explorations of literal or fantastic
interpretations of acoustic space, utilizing spatial production
innovations and the relationship between space, time and physical
energy.

For an upcoming multidisciplinary concert event in March,
holophon.ca is looking for multi-channel sonic compositions in any
genre. In particular, we are looking for works that trouble the
definitions of space and place through multi-channel audio methods.

Your multi-channel composition(s) can range from four to eight
channels. All accepted submissions will be presented through an
eight-channel octophonic (equal-spaced, lateral plane ring) speaker
system.

Also:

1. We will consider sonic works that have video or live components, including dance, poetry or experimental theater.




2. Artists must make their own arrangements for performers if this is a component of your work.




3. We are interested in Saskatchewan-based submissions for live
   performance: these works must consider multi-source, spatial sound
   (live and/or pre-recorded) in presentation. Travel expenses will be
   provided for out of town performers as funding allows.




4. All artists featured in the concert will receive an honorarium

Multi-channel submissions should be sent via a filesharing website
(such as yousendit or sendspace) or ftp server as individual .wav or
.aif files for each channel. We request that you label each file as
follows:

Composition title – Channel number – speaker position

Example: amazingspace_ch1_leftfront.wav

All submissions must include a completed submission form located at http://www.holophon.ca/submissions.html
