Callout: Spatial Audio Creative Engineering Network Seeking Sound Art

SPATIAL AUDIO CREATIVE ENGINEERING NETWORK AND CREATIVE

CALL FOR SOUND DESIGN or SOUND ARTWORK.

Submission Deadline 16 April 2007.


In partnership with leading audio company and soundcard designer
Creative, SpACE-Net would like to commission a specific piece of sound
design or a specific sound artwork, with interactive spatial audio
considerations at the core of the composition, design and delivery
process.

The selected artist will be supplied with a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi
Elite Pro Sound, a set of GigaWorks S750 7.1 loudspeakers and Creative’s
custom ISACT software for interactive spatial audio composition.

The work should be produced, delivered and presented using this
technology, which will be the artist’s to keep. In addition SpACE-Net
will contribute £500 to cover artist’s fees and expenses related to the
completion of this work.

The ISACT toolset incorporates a library for building interactive
spatial audio compositions into software applications. It is likely,
therefore, that the commission will be won either by an artist with
software development skills or by a software engineer / artist partnership.

We expect the final work to be completed by September 2007 for
presentation at a future SpACE-Net related event.
