Sound + Vision is a collaborative thematic residency between Media & Visual Arts (MVA) and Music & Sound at The Banff Centre. This is an inter-disciplinary residency for visual and media artists, sound artists, composers, musicians, theoreticians, poets, writers, rock stars and anti-stars; exploring the intersection between visual art and sound. Thematic residencies encompass theory and production in a range of media. Sound + Vision is an opportunity for artists to explore, experiment and play within the field of music, sound, popular culture and contemporary visual and sound cultures. This unique residency will bring together sound and visual artists to share ideas, collaborate and produce new works. Projects might relate to: conceptual art, minimalism, rock, rap, electro-acoustic, electronica, theatre, film, community, performance, spoken word, hip hop, rants, raves, art school, science, industrial, dance, demonstrating, broadcasting, radio, noise, subcultures, subversion, resistance, social change, recording, audio-engineering, turntablism, words, opera, voice, identity, technology, riot grrrls, homemade instruments, karaoke, psychology, visualization, punk, soundtracks, breathing, net art, spoken word, sound ecology, communication theory, politics, pop culture, television, afro-futurism, goth, DIY, low-fi, sampling, downloading, scratching, found sound, mixed tapes, copyright, copywrong, copyleft and more.

Criteria

The Sound + Vision residency seeks proposals for projects demonstrating imaginative approaches to content, form, and material concerns or proficiency. A proposal may include one or more stages of a project, including research, development, and production. Artists should have completed their basic training (not necessarily in a formal educational institution), produced an independent body of work, and received recognition of their peers through public presentation of their work. Assessment criteria are primarily based on artistic merit with consideration to fair representation of artistic specialization, gender, Canada's two official languages, Aboriginal peoples, and the various regions and cultures of Canada and the world. The Banff Centre's ability to technically support proposed projects is considered in adjudicating applicants. Sound + Vision will prioritize projects that demonstrate a transformative quality and approach to cross disciplinarity.
