Sounding Out 5
"Soundworlds - Sonic Arts, Film and Radio"”
Call for Papers and Panels
Call for Audio or Audiovisual works
Early Bird Registration Open
Bournemouth University, England, September 8-10, 2010
http://soundingout.bournemouth.ac.uk
The submission of papers and panels as well as audio/audiovisual works is invited for consideration.
The 2010 event aims to maintain and enhance the Sounding Out’s already impressive reputation as a
major forum for discussion and interaction between practitioners, artists and academics working in
the field of sound. For this year’s edition Keynote presentations will be given by a selection of
internationally renowned artists and practitioners; Chris Chafe, Dirk Maggs, Jérôme Joy, Jonathan
Harvey, Kaye Mortley, Larry Sider and Pedro Rebelo.
It may be useful if we list some of the themes, which we hope to explore in the conference; these are
by no means prescriptive but are intended as a guide. We are planning to base the conference on the
overall theme of "Soundworlds - Sonic Arts, Film and Radio" including the following indicative
subject areas, which will help us shape individual paper sessions and panels:
- e-Narratives
- Acoustic Ecology
- Audio histories
- Sound on Film
- Music as Narrative
- Sound and Music Worlds
- Radio Futures
- Interconnections
- SoundScapes
- Networks
- Sound
- Broadcast
- Geography
- Sense of place
- Sense of space
Papers and Panels
Proposals for both individual and panel presentations are welcome. Abstracts of 250 words (with
accompanying biographical information of no more than one page) should be submitted
electronically in PDF format or Word document by 1 June, 2010 to:
