<blockquote type="cite" cite>ME'D1.ATE is seeking artists and
musicians for the third season of the Soundwave>Series, the
innovative Bay Area multi-venue event series exploring imaginations in
sound. Scheduled for the Summer of 2008 in San Francisco USA, this
season's theme is titled MOVE>SOUND, where artists and musicians
explore the intersection of motion and sound, in its production,
collaboration, performance and interaction, and how this engages,
inspires, and challenges audiences and performers with a new, bold and
intense aural experience.</blockquote>

<blockquote type="cite" cite>The theme tries to reinterpret how we
see, feel and experience our auditory senses, how this moves us
physically, emotively, intellectually and spiritually. It investigates
new and innovative ways to experience sounds relation to movement and
explore how these connections invigorate and inspire new directions in
sound making.</blockquote>

classical/traditional musicians, orchestras, composers, performance
artists, dancers, installation artists, media artists, filmmakers,
animators, spoken word artists, visual artists and other artistic
organizations and individuals that involve an exploration between
sound and movement. Performers are encouraged to explore new and
innovative ideas of getting audiences closer to their own sound/music
using forms and concepts of movement. Possible ideas may include
motion sensors, dance collaborations, film collaborations, theatrics,
moving vehicles, visual cues, sound generating mechanisms,
installations, audience movement, and any other ideas conjured by your
imagination)</blockquote>

<blockquote type="cite" cite>Most performances are limited to approx
20 minutes long. Please indicate in your brief if your piece needs to
be longer or shorter. After proposal acceptance, some productions may
require development time and learning of new technologies to be fully
realized. ME'D1.ATE can help explore possibilities with you in terms
of collaborators, equipment and feasibility needs but the artist is
fully responsible for the final work and its requirements for
performance.</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>ME'D1.ATE encourages all to apply
however we are unable to provide travel or housing costs for those
outside of the San Francisco Bay Area. Performances are paid (per
performance- regardless of amount of performers) and is TBD based on
funding awards currently in process. As ME'D1.ATE is actively
seeking grant support, opportunities to this funding may be available
to artists who respond before November 15 to this call.</blockquote>

<blockquote type="cite" cite><b>About
Soundwave>Series</b></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>Soundwave>Series is
Project>Soundwave's biennial event series recently named Best
Sound Sculptures - Future Classic by San Francisco Magazine's BEST
of 2007 issue. Each season investigates a new idea in sound and
invites diverse multidisciplinary artists and musicians to explore the
season's theme in new and innovative directions. It challenges and
inspires artists and audiences to look deeper into the sound medium
and discover new connections to sound making and experience. The
Soundwave>Series has completed two successful seasons, Season 2's
SURROUND>SOUND in 2006 and Season 1's FREE>SOUND in 2004, and
is currently developing Season 3's MOVE>SOUND set to launch in
2008. Project>Soundwave, launched in 2004, explores the boundaries
of how we see sound, language and music. It is a project dedicated to
explore innovative sound work and present intriguing artists in sound
and music through the production of CDs, exhibitions and live events.
Its mission is to explore the creation of sound; attempt to understand
and shape the aural landscapes in everyday life; and finding
innovative ways to engage the listener using sound as language, music,
environment or a vehicle for human connection and
interaction.</blockquote>

<blockquote type="cite" cite><i>"The Soundwave Series has sought
to make irrelevant the typical distinctions between artist, musician,
audience, stage, and venue... idiosyncratic performances that are
challenging, charming, magical, assaultive, and (as is always the case
with really sweet sound art) deeply personal for everyone present."
