Call: The Spatial Audio Creative Engineering Network seeks to commission surround sound audio art

The Spatial Audio Creative Engineering Network (SpACE-Net) is pleased to
announce a unique collaborative opportunity for composers, sound
artists, and sound designers working anywhere in the audio industry.

In partnership with leading audio company and soundcard designer
Creative, SpACE-Net would like to commission a specific piece of
sound design/sound artwork which has interactive spatial audio
considerations at the core of its composition, design and delivery
process. The piece should have broad aesthetic appeal and should be
able to serve as an advertisement of the creative possibilities
offered by spatial audio (i.e. it should sound good and be novel and
exciting).

The selected partnership/group will be supplied with a Creative Sound
Blaster(r) X-Fi Elite Pro Sound, a set of Creative(r) GigaWorks S750 7.1
loudspeakers and Creative¹s custom Interactive Spatial Audio
Composition Tool (ISACT ) software. The work should be produced,
delivered and presented using this technology, which will be the
artist¹s to keep. In addition SpACE-Net will contribute towards
artist¹s fees and expenses related to the completion of this work.
