Call for Contributions

eContact! 23.1 — Sound Installation

Electroacoustic and sound art practices presented in the context of an indoor or outdoor installation or in a site-specific location afford the listener-viewer a completely different temporal experience than concert hall-oriented works. Here, it is possible for individual visitors to tailor or even create their own experience of the work. Deadline for submissions: 1 April 2024.

Open and ongoing call for contributions to the CEC’s electroacoustic Jukebox.

21.2

eContact! 21.2 — Dematerialization of the Sounding Object: Conceptual approaches to sound-based artistic practices

In contrast to works in which sound materials, gestural characteristics and musical or sonic structures are paramount, the “material” per se in some artists’ practice is rather the concept. This inescapably leads to unique works that in many cases demand a rethinking of listening paradigms and presentation formats. (July 2023)
