"Earmaginations" Call for Submissions

Earmaginations Call for Submissions.

This was for the 2019 event. You may be interested in the 2020 call for submissions.

Deadline: Feb 14, 2019 (at 11:59PM America/Los_Angeles time)

Taking place at Angels Gate Cultural Center, soundpedro is an annual event, produced by the Long Beach artist group, FLOOD. The "Earmaginations" presentation will add greater conceptual breadth to soundpedro by moving beyond sound to “ear orientation.”

We are looking for ear-oriented silent videos that explore and synthesize ideas, images, and visual conceptualizations informed by or responding to the dynamics, the interplays, and the aesthetics of various auralities and deafnesses, hearing and listening. Videos will be displayed outdoors, on multiple surfaces.

We are looking for silent videos (5 - 15 minutes) that can include visualization of such themes or actions as:
• acoustics
• psychoacoustics
• audio technologies
• spatialization
• timbralization
• environmental sound
• hearing anatomies
• synaesthetic responses to sound
• imagined aural response
• connection of sound and hearing to sight and seeing
• autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR)

Check out this article on Vox about synesthesia and vEAR.
