[Microsound-announce] 8 sound works release announcement

[info]

hi everyone,

  8 sound works is a compliation cdr release to benefit the NY Society 
for Acoustic Ecology, in a limited edition of 100.

this collection of work was inspired by an outdoor radio transmission 
performance in free103point9's Acra NY space, a day of listening to 
works on headphones, walking around a pine forest and a meadow with 
ponds and stream.

best,
ben

8 sound works is a compilation cdr curated and organized by ben owen on 
behalf of the NY Society for Acoustic Ecology (NYSAE). the artists 
assembled on this disc took part in a live radio broadcast event called 
Tune(outside))) that was organized by transmission arts organization 
free103point9 on July 4, 2005. broadcast locally from free103's "Wave 
Farm" in Acra, NY, the broadcast was also streamed over the web to an 
international audience.

the artists presented here were invited to contribute to an "outdoor 
sounds" radio broadcast. this audio became one of four live, 
simultaneously broadcast micro-radio stations set up at Wave Farm. 
those listening on site were free to wander the area with portable 
headsets and tune into any one of the four live broadcasts. web 
listeners could choose between four different thematic streams of 
audio, including the "outdoor sounds" channel.

the liner notes for 8 Sound Works include a firsthand account of the 
Tune(outside))) event written by participant Andy Graydon and a brief 
excerpt of a conversation on acoustic ecology that took place with 
members of NYSAE during a residency at Wave Farm in October 2005. the
