Shortwave Radio, CD Players, the Inner Ear and Waltzing Goldfish: Medium-specific practices in sound

Theoretical discussions of medium specificity within electroacoustic and sonic art disciplines often draw on individualized works definitively bound to a singular medium. In practice, however, artists engage with the idea through a somewhat broader reflection on practices, projects and processes that prove challenging or impossible to “translate” into another medium.

Call for Contributions

eContact! 21.1 — Take Back the Stage: Live coding and laptop orchestras

For many electroacoustic composers and sound artists, coding and programming are by no means new concepts. However, their manifestation as an aspect of live performance has proven an engaging development over the past decade. The Laptop Orchestra configuration is commonly encountered in live coding contexts. Deadline for submissions: extended to 15 April 2020.
