OPEN SUBMISSION EXHIBITION
EAST is an international open submission exhibition, held annually at Norwich Gallery and Norwich School of Art and Design. There are no rules about who may apply. All the works that will feature in EAST 05, visual or aural, must be transmittable through the internet or other electronic media. One of the objectives of EAST 05 is to challenge artists to extend their practice. We are looking for projects in real time of lengthy duration and which will stretch the limits of presently available technology. The project will need to be transmitted to EAST 05 in Norwich for the seven weeks of the exhibition. We will work with the selected artists to develop ways in which their ideas can be presented through the opportunities offered by new media. All the work in the exhibition will be presented through electronic media.

CALL FOR WORK: THE OVERTURE PROJECT
At the time of the centenary of Jules Verne 's disappearance (1905), some of his novel titles come back into our memory like the many divings into imaginary worlds that they always bring : "De la terre à la lune", "Le tour du monde en quatre-vingt jours", "Vingt mille lieues sous les mers", "Voyage au centre de la terre", "La chasse au météore". His universe of fiction where machines allow voyages in the seas, countries and other worlds were not utopian but simply ahead of their times, rich of space, inventions and sounds. His writings cover many topics. The subject of one of his stories was an adventurous journey around the globe, causing echoes of his talent to spread across the four corners of the world.
So it is proposed to those who heard them to carry out a work "oeuvre ouverte", a musical world of sounds encouraging the listener to dive-in and revisit his youth memories by recalling the sounds of raging monsters, humming engines, silence from deep seas and sidereal spaces...
Then, the suggested topic for this year's overture project is : "future worlds, automats and machines to project oneself there". This work overture project is a musicians homage to the author who could tell up to the comma the adventures of Mr D-sharp and Mrs E-flat.
Every year, the participation of composers and sound artists is more and more important to the overture project. This is the reason why the organizers have decided to change some terms of the proposal :
_All works will be played continuously during festival "Synthese 2005"
_Listeners will communicate their appreciations and preferences
_From this base, the organizers will distinguish twenty pieces
_These 20 pieces will be programmed in two concerts of the serie "Actuelles internationales" at the 36th festival "Synthese 2006"
The other conditions are not modified :
7. The work overture project is opened to all composers, creators and sonic sculptors who wish to participate.
8. All works have to be finished before mid - May 2005. Works have to be on this theme only, otherwise they will not be played.
9. The duration of your work must span not less than 4 and not more than 6 minutes.
10. Your work must be exempt from all broadcasts and reproduction rights, excepted of course author's royalties.
11. You must send your work using one of the following media: CD, Dat.
12. Your work will be kept at the IMEB's International Sound Library.
To take part in the work overture project you must accept all the conditions in the agreement.
Send us exclusively by email your programme note, biography and photography before April 30, 2005.
All information sent to us will be published in the Festival program at www.imeb.fr
Please send us your work between April 30, 2021 and May 15, 2021 the latest.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Proposal Deadline is the 1st of March
Electroacoustic Music Studies Network (EMS) - International Conference Series
EMS05 - Electroacoustic Music Studies. A century of innovation involving sound and technology - Resources, Discourse, Analytical Tools Scientific Committee
Time and place: 19-22 October, 2005 – Montreal, Quebec, Canada
The EMS conference is organized every two years through the initiative of the Electroacoustic Music Studies Network, an international team which aims to encourage reflection on the better understanding of electroacoustic music and its genesis, appearance and development over the span of a century. The organizers are all engaged in the key areas of debate and actively seeking the development of solutions.
The first conference, in October 2003, was a result of the initiatives of De Montfort University (UK), the University of Paris-Sorbonne (France), and INA/GRM (France). It took place at the Georges-Pompidou Centre in Paris, within the auspices of IRCAM’s Résonances 2003 festival. Selected papers were published in issue 9/1 of Organised Sound.
From the advent of the first electric instruments, the phonograph, radio, telephone, and subsequent electronic and digital inventions, the approaches to technologies relevant to the art of sound have been limited only by the imagination of the musician. In recent years, there seems to have been a proliferation of studies relating to music incorporating these technologies However, the investigation of such a varied musical repertoire raises a number of issues that the EMS conferences wish to examine. The themes of the conference therefore emphasize questions of resources, discourse, and analytical tools relevant to electroacoustic musics.
1) Sources and resources
- What types of materials are being or should be documented?
- How does one create, expand, preserve and offer access to collections?
- What opportunities exist for exchange and collaboration?
- How can we help make the electroacoustic music repertoire more accessible?
2) Discourse / analysis of electroacoustic musics
- What types of discourse are relevant to electroacoustic works?
- Which forms of representation and which approaches to analysis are useful?
- Which analytical methods are currently being developed?
- How can one adapt existent analytical methods of music to elec?troacoustic works, many of which involve no prescriptive notation?
- How can we further develop the field of study of electroacoustic musics?
3) Analytical tools
- How are analytical tools being produced and disseminated in the community?
- What means are available for communicating the sonic form through symbolic and graphic representations?
- Does the study of electroacoustic musics require specifically-designed tools or can it take advantage of methods conceived for other musics?
4) Taxonomy, terminology, and aesthetic diversity
- What systems of classification are in use or should be developed?
- How can we become more consistent in our use of terminology in a field as dynamic as electroacoustic music?
- Are there aesthetic questions that are specific to electroacoustic music?
Format for presentations:
Spoken presentations
Proposals for spoken presentations should be submitted in the form of an extended abstract (minimum 2 pages) accompanied by a detailed C.V. and list of publications.

CALL FOR EARSHOT NO. 5 THE JOURNAL OF THE UK & IRELAND SOUNDSCAPE COMMUNITY
Title: NOISE: Debates, Strategies and Methodologies
Within the current milieu of the European Commission's noise mapping directive and the Greater London Authority's Ambient Noise Strategy, we welcome contributions from those of you that have been or are currently engaged in soundscape and/or noise studies within the UK and Ireland.

Moreover we are interested in the prevailing culture and health debate surrounding noise abatement, and the addition of noise issues to, for example, the estate agent's and tourist industry's agenda.
As the built environment often defines and/or modulates our sonic environment, how are issues of sound and noise design being addressed in architectural/urban planning practitioner's education?
Not only would we like to hear from environmental and urban studies but would also encourage contributions that have explored alternative approaches, such as community arts, direct action or culture jamming. Finally, we welcome contributions to the Members' Activities and Comments pages. Submission guidelines, proposals and correspondence should be e-mailed to j.drever@gold.ac.uk
DISAPPEARING SOUNDMARKS CD
We invite listeners in the UK and Ireland to submit audio recordings of endangered sounds that are special to you, your community or your locality. For example, an endangered sound might be associated with a cultural event or a natural habitat that is declining or under threat.
The recordings should not exceed 5 minutes and should be submitted on an audio CD. Please ensure that you hold all rights to the material.
Please include your name, the location of the sound, the date and time of the recording and accompanying notes (250 words max.) describing the physical environment, why it is of value to you and what are the reasons for the sound becoming endangered.
