Sound designers and sound artists are often asked to create realistic sonic environments for places that they've never experienced. This requires some serious shapeshifting and mindbending skills. For this month's Giant Ear))) we would like to celebrate these skills by requesting the truly fantastical. Please send in: (Option 1) A piece composed for a place that you may never be able to go to physically as a person. Altering the sound to convince listeners of the place is encouraged. Or (Option 2) Send in a recording/composition of yourself actually in an actual fantastic place. Fantastic! Please send your field-recording based work as an mp3 (via e-mail, FTP or wwww.sendspace.com) to Andrea Williams at lemurz66@yahoo.com By April 2, 2009. "Fantastic Places," hosted by Andrea Williams and Edmund Mooney, will be webcast on free103point9.org Sun. Apr. 5, 7-9 p.m. Works by Blevin Blectum, Simon Whetham, Museum of Viral Memory, and more! Playlist will be up the day-of show at www.nyacousticecology.org. GIANT EAR))) is NYSAE's weekly, two-hour radio show webcasting recordings of the NYC soundscape, (wo)man-on-the-street public interest interviews, live on-site sound explorations, special guests, and more. New show updated each month. http://www.free103point9.org www.nyacousticecology.org
