OPEN FADER @ Sonorities 2005 Call for Works
The Sonorities Festival in Belfast invites composers and artists working with sound to submit works to be presented during Sonorities 2005. This year's festival is dedicated to artistic practice that challenges traditional definitions of art, music and technology. We encourage two types of submission:
- Live Performances involving technology
This includes laptop improv, VJ, audio-visual, live-electronics, sound poetry, hacktivism. Please submit the work in a documentary format that reflects the nature of the performance (e.g. video on DVD, audio on CD, software for Mac/PC, photographs).
- Electroacoustic Music (Stereo or Multi-channel)
This includes Stereo works for diffusion, multi-channel works and works with video. All submissions must be on DAT, CD or DA88. Works with video must be on DVD.
Selected works will be featured in four special concerts during the Festival. These events will take place in the Sonic Arts Research Centre Sonic Lab performance space. This unique environment for the performance of electroacoustic music includes facilities for sound projection in a full 3D environment through loudspeakers located above and below the audience area. The experimental nature of the space makes it essential that selected composers attend the Festival to perform their pieces.
Please include a title and program notes as well as a short biography with the submission. Contact information should include a phone number, address, and an email address. A stamped, self-addressed envelope is required for the return of all materials. Materials that are not required to be returned will become part of SARC's media library and may be considered for future events.
