2017 MEGAPOLIS Audio Festival

  • Location:
    Philadelphia, PA

The MEGAPOLIS Audio Festival is a multi-day site-specific event for creating, experimenting with, and experiencing sound. This year our fifth festival is coming to PHILADELPHIA the weekend of September 15-17th.

We’re looking for sound art events and works of all kinds – workshops, tours, installations, digital works, and miscellany – to fill our festival on Saturday the 16th and Sunday the 17th. Circuit bending / noisemaker constructions, slumber parties, free-form audio editing sessions, interactive demonstrations, experimental musical practice and theory, film with a heavy audio component, subversive audio tours, (un-boring) lectures, etc.

This year’s theme is REFLECTION. Reflection can take many literal and figurative forms. How are we reflecting on what we are individually or collectively seeing, hearing, and experiencing? How can we process our surroundings and reflect them back in unique, positive, and/or impactful ways? How are we mirroring our community or the world and its ideals?
