Welcome to Send + Receive: A Festival of Sound [version 9]. After eight annual editions, the festival has migrated from the autumn and into the spring. We are excited about this change, and view it as a new era of growth and continuity. We are looking forward to bringing you more innovative, exploratory, and challenging new work by sound and media artists and curators from Canada and beyond.
[version 9] festival programming features a blend of past contributors and of first-time appearances. Send + Receive welcomes the return of festival favorites Tim Hecker and Martin Tétreault, along with first-time presentations by artists crys cole, Freida Abtan, This Camera Is Red, and Christine Kirouac.
This year, the festival consolidates a special artistic and personal relationship between the cities of Winnipeg and Montréal. In particular, we are proud to present Les Mains/Hands by Eric Mattson, a Montréal-based independent curator of electronic music and new media and Director of the ORAL record label. Programmed specially for Send + Receive, Eric Mattson has selected Montréal artists Minibloc and Martin Tétreault, as well as Andrew Liles from the UK. Be sure to check out what promises to be an intimate evening of rich and dynamic exploratory work.
The Festival is also very proud and happy to present founding Artistic Director and sound artist Steve Bates in performance this year. The man whose imagination and drive has been the very spirit of Send + Receive for so many years will help to close out the week's programming. This special evening is not to be missed.
We call on you to participate in all that Send + Receive has to offer this year with performances, installations, screenings, the Sonic Emissions Radio Series, and the Sonic Foundry Workshops. None of this would be possible without the support and giant efforts of our funders, sponsors, board members, staff, and volunteers. Enjoy!
