USA – The Northwest Electro-Acoustic Music Organization (NWEAMO) is seeking electro-acoustic works for its fifth annual international festival of electronic music.
Works may be representative of all styles and aesthetics, from the classical avant-garde to the fringes of experimental pop.MAIN THEME: This year we are hoping to spotlight audience-interactive electro-acoustic works. These works should employ some form of audience participation to complete their execution. Interaction may be physical, intellectual, sensory, and/or other type, and it may be achieved through technological, entirely human, or other means. To facilitate electronic interaction, NWEAMO will provide a wireless access point (802.11) with a connection to the Internet.
PLEASE NOTE: NWEAMO also welcomes submissions of electro-acoustic works that DO NOT involve audience interaction. Preference will be given to works that feature a live performance element.
Composers must attend the festival. There is a $15 submission fee. NWEAMO is a volunteer-run, non-profit organization and all money raised goes toward promotion and production.
