<div>Hi all, just a reminder:</div><div><br></div><div>Call for Works: Non-Cochlear Sound Art</div><div><br></div><div>Diapason will be working with sound artist and author Seth Kim-Cohen to present an exhibition of "Non-Cochlear Sound", as formulated in Kim-Cohen's book "In the Blink of an Ear: Toward a Non-Cochlear Sonic Art" (Continuum). The exhibition is scheduled for October, 2010. Non-Cochlear Sound describes a form of sonic practice not primarily concerned with the ear. Marcel Duchamp’s famous call for a non-retinal visual art was answered (eventually) by minimalism, conceptual art, social-based practice, and a host of approaches that appeal not to the eye, but to other concerns. In his new book, In The Blink Of An Ear: Toward a Non-Cochlear Sonic Art, artist and theorist Seth Kim-Cohen asks why sound has been slower to make the conceptual, linguistic, and social turns. As a way of responding to this question and of “redressing” this perhaps unfortunate sonic situation, we seek sound work that engages any or all of the following: sociality, conceptualism, politics, textuality, discursivity, subjectivity, history, economics, or philosophy.</div>
