Open call for proposals for audio content for a unique underwater sound
festival touring nationwide in the UK and future festivals.
>>Setting<<
Speakers will be placed underwater and the audience will float around ears
submerged immersed in sound. Sound travels 4 times faster in water and is
heard omniponically. Although we will have 2 channels playing back, the
stereo effect is lost and is perceived as a dynamic variation and not as
directionality.
The listeners are immersed in sound and perceive sound through their bones as well as through the ears. The sound is heard more intimately.
>>Criteria<<
The Call for Proposals will be mainly looking for sounds which depict
undersea life/ human interaction with water/ sounds which immerse the listener /abstract electronica/ electro-acoustica
** Audio work is to be of any duration over 5 minutes and under 20 minutes
**
