.microsound community project: microacoustic music

what is .microsound? what will it sound like in 10 years time?
is it purely music made via digital means or can it shape shift into
using acoustic musical instruments?
what is the sound of microacoustic music?
let's find out
each microsound member gets a chance to describe what microacoustic
music sounds like to them


GUIDELINES:

- length: all works must be 2 minutes maximum

- deadline: February 1 2010

- mp3 files: filenames use only ALPHANUMERICS; i.e. NO spaces
(underbars_and-hyphens-are-OK), stereo, encoded at 192 - 320kbps and
have ID3 tags!! please make sure they have ID3 tags!

content: all sound sources are acoustic musical instruments
with NO processing other than the following:
- mixing/layering
- editing (cut 'n paste)
- slowing down or speeding up
- filtering/EQ

instruments can be detuned, woodwinds played as percussion, stick a sax
mouthpiece on a bassoon, contact mic'd, deconstructed, use extended
techniques, destroyed or played 'properly' then (de)composed in editing

files should be placed here:

http://www.microsound.org/repository/

there is also a link on the microsound.org front page

***you MUST be sub'd to the list before you are allowed to upload files

the server checks for you against the list of sub'ers

if you are having trouble write to Paulo or John and ask them to update
the list
(has to be done by hand IIRC)

___remember to name and tag your files properly or they will be taken
down___
