call for sound design/sound artwork

SPATIAL AUDIO CREATIVE ENGINEERING NETWORK AND CREATIVE

CALL FOR SOUND DESIGN or SOUND ARTWORK.

Submission Deadline 16 April 2007.

(with apologies for cross-postings)

In partnership with leading audio company and soundcard designer Creative, SpACE-Net would like to commission a specific piece of sound design or a specific sound artwork, with interactive spatial audio considerations at the core of the composition, design and delivery process.

The selected artist will be supplied with a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro Sound, a set of GigaWorks S750 7.1 loudspeakers and Creative’s custom ISACT software for interactive spatial audio composition.

The work should be produced, delivered and presented using this technology, which will be the artist’s to keep. In addition SpACE-Net will contribute £500 to cover artist’s fees and expenses related to the completion of this work.

The ISACT toolset incorporates a library for building interactive spatial audio compositions into software applications. It is likely, therefore, that the commission will be won either by an artist with software development skills or by a software engineer / artist partnership.

We expect the final work to be completed by September 2007 for presentation at a future SpACE-Net related event.
