New Adventures in Sound Art Date: Tue, Mar 6, 2012 at 3:52 PMSubject: TransX Transmission Art Symposium call for Call for Papers deadline March 16, 2012New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) is pleased to announce Trans-X,a symposium about Transmission Art May 25-27, 2012We are now inviting proposals for papershttp://naisa.ca/opportunities.html#transxRooted in the earliest experiments with radio, Transmission Art hascontinued to flourish with experiments with wireless communicationstechnology over the past 100 years. The 21st Century is not excludedfrom this experimentation as artists have ventured into exploring avariety of mobile-based platforms and more lesser known forms oftransmission such as VLF. The terrain of transmission art is dynamicand fluid, always open to redefinition. With NAISA being a sound artorganization, we ask the question, what new sound experiences arepossible in the transmission and mobile media platforms? We would likethe new artists of today to answer our challenge.The Trans-X symposium, part of the Deep Wireless Festival of Radio &Transmission Art, will focus on transmission art, with particularinterest in paper contributions that summarize, examine or reframetraditions and histories of transmission art practices, technology,education and pedagogy. Additionally, we are very interested in paperpresentations that go beyond the local contingent to give a sense ofwhat new technologies of international transmission activity mightsound like.Proposals related to any aspect of transmission art practice arewelcome. Submit a 500-1000 word abstract, and a biography of 250 wordsor less, to the symposium's Review Committee at:http://naisa.ca/transx-submit-piece.phpAll symposium contributions will be webcast live, and text proceedingswill be published on-line on the NAISA web-site.
