Artists sought for SoundWalk in Long Beach


Artists who utilize, in any manner, sound in their work are invited to submit to the Tenth Annual SoundWalk event to be held in Long Beach CA on Saturday, October 5, 2013. Please visit http://submissions.soundwalk.org for submission requirements and details.

Deadline for submissions is Monday, July 1st, 2013. Feel free to forward this email to those individuals or groups you think might be interested in submitting.


100 years ago this week (March 11, 1913), Luigi Russolo's Futurist manifesto "The Art of Noises" was released. It was a letter that strove to open the sensorium to new ways of perceiving. It has been SoundWalk's mission to promote such aspirations and, we hope, our success to have done so. However, in order to continue to find new ways of perceiving, we must transcend the aural and move into other modes. As a result, this will be SoundWalk's last year. 2015 will be the launch year of a more expansive and daring event that will explore and respond to the synaesthetic experience in which cognitive boundaries dissolve and the senses converge.

Until the next,

FLOOD
