(http:// www.annualgeneralmeeting.net is currently accepting
submissions for inclusion in both the 2006 SOUNDplay festival and AGM

sound art. Included in its Toronto productions are: Dmimieep Wireless,
Sound Travels, Sign Waves and SOUNDplay.

AGM, based in Copenhagen, builds annual artistic collaborations and
develops new connections among participating artists and audiences
around Europe and other parts of the world. AGM 06 will feature
Canadian new media works and screenings among a selection of
international works for the 2006 event in Berlin and Copenhagen.

Please submit the following for consideration:

- VHS or DVD copy of the work
- a description or program note of the work
- biographies of the principle creators of the work.

Note: we will request permission from the artist before any works are
screened and at that time will request a screening master of the
