Call: Audio art sought for Canadian Electroacoustic Society's 60x60 Project
Call for Works for the first Canadian 60x60 Project (2008)*
Vox Novus, in collaboration with the Canadian Electroacoustic Community
(CEC), is inviting composers to submit recorded works 60 seconds or less
in duration to be included in the first Canadian version of the annual
60x60 project. 60 compositions will be selected to be played
continuously in a one-hour concert. The Canadian 60x60 concert season
will begin with a debut in Montréal and continue throughout Canada in
venues to be announced. Concerts may also include a visual component (a
clock, video clips, spectrographs, dance, etc.). The works will also be
broadcasted on radio stations and featured on a Sonus.ca dedicated
gallery. Please submit your recorded work(s) and submission form(s)
before 31 March (postmarked). You may submit your works online or on a
CDR; see submission guidelines below. Your work may be selected for
both the Canadian and the International 60x60 projects.
During the concert each of the 60 pieces selected will begin precisely
at the beginning of the minute, this will mark the end of one piece and
the beginning of another. There will be no pause between the pieces.
Works may be less than 60 seconds in length, but may not exceed 60
seconds. Selected works that are shorter than 60 seconds will be
"padded" with silence either before, after, or surrounding the
composition. Please note that the total duration of the work including
silence may NOT exceed sixty seconds.
Eligibility:
The call is open to composers of all ages and career stages who live in
Canada, and to Canadian composers living in Canada or abroad. All other
composers may participate in the international 60x60 project (see below).
Eligible works:
Any sound or music captured on recorded media, which does not require
live performers for its presentation in concert. The piece may be of
any style and may comprise electronic sounds, field recordings,
recordings of voice or musical instruments, or other sound sources.
Recordings of acoustic compositions SHOULD NOT be accompanied by musical
scores. Works submitted should be created specifically for this project
and must not have been previously performed or broadcasted.
