STEREOPHONIC SOUNDSCAPE
The Digital Art Weeks of ETH Zurich and the Stereolith Speaker System
Company, Switzerland, would like to invite audio artists to submit
soundscape works. The works will be chosen on their ability to
"evoke" the presence of things or beings in space and to the extent
in which the work "immerses" the listener into a completely imaginary
sonic environment. Each work must be in stereo of around 10 minutes
in length.
Stereolith is an innovative reproduction system for the re-creation
of recordings made to playback in stereo. Unlike traditional
loudspeaker configurations, the Stereolith is a single construction
in which both the "left" and the "right" channels have been
incorporated. In this way, the system can be installed at any point
within the listening space allowing the listener to experience a true
stereo effect of each work from any point within the space as if it
was a live event.
CALL
Please submit all works in .aiff format on a CD. Please include in
digital form the title of the work, a short description of it (no
more than 100 words) and a short biography of the author of the work
(no more than 50 words). Selected works will be presented on the
Stereolith Systems over a period of 3 days from the 12th to the 14th
of July 2007 during the Digital Art Weeks Festival.
Information about each audio artist, soundscape work and the time it
can be heard will be announced in the events program. This years
prize for the best work in the contest is a Stereolith 232 Monitor.
The prize is sponsored by Klangpur Zurich, the exclusive licensing
partner of the Stereolith company worldwide. For more information
