AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Luvsound is now accepting submissions of new writing on sound for a
forthcoming online (and possibly short-run print) journal called Letters
on Sounds.

We're interested especially in writing on the practice of making,
listening, and living with sound from artists who work primarily with
sound. Please do not submit album reviews or other similar work.

Letters on Sounds hopes to be a platform for people working in new ways
with sound, especially as that might relate to a particular community,
to share their approaches and experiences with others of a like mind.

To submit, please send a short email to erik@luvsound.org with a two to
ten sentence description of your piece, as well as a brief biographical
statement.

Call for Contribution! Sound of Ebb: An open source sound series

Call for Contributions > Submit a Sound!

Sound of Ebb is an open source sound series that calls for reflection on
the global crisis by sound artists and artists working with sound to
respond to the question:

What is the sound of Recession?

Artists are asked to create a work or sound recording that responds to
the current economic, social and political climate. Pieces can be field
recordings, compositions, radio plays, soundscapes, or even songs and
pieces of music.. etc. They can be conceptual, personal, critical,
creative or interpretive.

A moment of recession remarks a deceleration and slowing down –
opening up to a space for reflection. When a tide recedes into a breathe
