***** CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: BOAT RESIDENCIES ***** EUROPEAN SOUND DELTA comprises an ephemeral radio, a touring art residency and a nomadic festival that will take place during Summer 2008. About thirty European artists will take turns on two Studio-boats navigating upstream on the Rhine and Danube rivers from their estuaries and towards Strasbourg (F). There, a closing event/exhibition has been planned in September 2008. The general theme of the project is: “sound exploration of crossed territories”. During the project, the boats will mark several stops on the banks of the Rhine and Danube rivers, in about twenty town and cities and a dozen countries where several public events have been scheduled. Coordinated by the Collectif MU (Paris-F), in collaboration with Rokolectiv (Bucarest-RO) and SCAS (Sofia - BG), the project is currently supported by the Culture Programme of the European Union. It is also related to the “Saison Culturelle Européenne” by Cultures France and has been attracting numerous supporting partners in all the countries involved. EUROPEAN SOUND DELTA is now looking for projects including performances, installations or radio creations made from field-recordings as part of a residency lasting from one week to two months on either boats. This call is meant for artists whose practice is linked to one of the various forms of sound art. A whole range of technical equipment will be available on board: radio, web facilities and sound recording devices. The cost of the residency (food, lodging and travelling expenses) plus a fee for the artistic production will be covered, according to the duration of the stay and the nature of the project. The work produced during the residency will be publicly presented during the boat-call events and/or during the closing show in Strasbourg. A live or podcasted broadcast of the work is also likely to take place via the ephemeral and project-specific radio. A summarised version of the selected proposals will be published online on www.sound-delta.eu.
