[Microsound-announce] Sound Edition of Offscreen

[Randolph Jordan]

Dear microsound people,

I have just finished editing a special issue of the online journal  
Offscreen dedicated to "Sound in the Cinema and Beyond."  There are  
contributions from a couple members of the microsound list, amoung  
many others.  The issue features essays on film sound, visual music,  
audiovisual performance, soundscape composition, audiowalks, media  
technologies, and lots of other stuff.  So it should be of some  
interest here.  Check it out:  www.offscreen.com.

All the best,

Randolph.
