[microsound] MAX MSP - Supercollider Job at Sound Design company London

Thu Jun 4 06:18:31 EDT 2009

Hello all.
Firstly, apologies to admin staff for posting our intern announcement in the wrong section. I've tried to post this in the Announcements section, however it bounced back saying i didn't have permission.Nonetheless, I wanted to address all respondents' concerns and annoyances.
We're posting the intern opportunity anonymously as we don't want applicants to see our current work, and influence their submissions based upon what they think we might be after, or our style of sound design at present. We also get a lot of lazy applicants for sound design jobs who are motivated purely by our client list and getting their foot in the door, but not about the art or passion for creative sound design.We want to be influenced by whoever in, as well as guiding them as to the way we work and share our experience.
Of course the risk of posting anonymously is that we could be anybody, either an established company or a sole man/woman leeching the patches, creativity and inspiration of others.I understand if/why you guys are cynical about our proposition/request. We've got no intention of using anyone's work without credit, it's happened to us in the past, and it's damned infuriating.
Nonetheless, for those that are interested in the posting, I really do look forward to receiving any responses.
Best wishes,
Colin and the team.
