CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS for CANADIAN ARTISTS
send + receive: a festival of sound v.14
October 17 – 20, 2012 (dates to be confirmed)
Athough we accept submissions from artists world-wide throughout the year, we are currently only seeking submissions from CANADIAN artists to complete our 2012 festival program. If you are not Canadian but would like to submit a proposal to send + receive, please feel free to send proposals at anytime during the year for consideration for future editions and satellite events.
For the 14th edition of send + receive we are seeking submissions from Canadian artists for audio works that explore ideas around Natural Sound. This theme is open to interpretation and we welcome project proposals with various approaches that express a kinship with this idea. Organic materials, field recordings, breath & body works, acoustic phenomena, works inspired by the natural sound world and conceptual works are some examples and we welcome others.
Proposals for live performances, public works (presentations/performances), installations, screenings, radio profiles, workshops, artist talks and more are welcomed.
Please download our submission form online here.
Submission checklist:
· completed submission form
· a C.V. or detailed bio (max 3 pages)
· a detailed project description (max 2 pages)
· an outline of the technical needs of the project
