Call for Works for the 60x60 project
http://pourinfos.org/fichiers/_participation_39544_60x60_call_2007.pdf

Deadline: Submissions must be postmarked by May 21, 2007


Vox Novus is inviting composers to submit works 60 seconds or less in length
to included in its fifth annual 60x60 project. 60 compositions will be
selected to be performed continuously in a one-hour concert, in conjunction
with multimedia elements and an analog clock marking the passage of time.
During the concert each of the 60 pieces selected will begin precisely at
the beginning of the minute, this will mark the end of one piece and the
beginning of another. There will be no pause between the pieces. Works may
be less than 60 seconds in length, but may not exceed 60 seconds. Works
selected that are less than 60 seconds long will be "padded" with silence
either before, after, or surrounding the composition. Please note that the
total duration of the work including silence may NOT exceed sixty seconds.
The 60x60 project's definition of a record work is as follows: any work
created as a musical composition which is captured on recorded media, which
does not require live performers for its production in broadcast at concert
halls, radio, multi-media, etc. Its creation can include but not limited to
acoustic instruments, voice, environmental sources, and computer (Sampling,
MIDI, C Sound, ProTools, etc.)

Acoustic compositions should be submitted with the understanding that it is
their recording that is of prime importance and is what will be used to
determine its selection. Scores of works are strongly discouraged and will
not be used in the selection process.

Excerpts of larger works are strongly discouraged. 60x60 is a project of
"signature works" and short works created specifically for the 60x60
project. Works generated from procedures (i.e. mathematical matrices,
organizational systems, or computer programs,) remixed works, or themes and
motives recomposed from other of the composer's own work are acceptable.
The call is open to composers of any nationality, age, or career stage.
Works submitted must not have been previously performed or broadcasted.
Compact Discs that include the audio submission must be labeled with the
composer's name and the title of the work. The submission form must be sent
at the same time with the submitted work. Submission form must contain the
composer's name, address, email, phone number, composition title,
composition length, and track position on the compact disc. Biographies and
program notes may be included on a separate sheet, but must be typed and
each may be no longer than 100 words in length.

Multiple works may be submitted. Each work must be noted on the submission
form(s) and clearly indicated on the CD. Do Not send originals! No works
will be returned, and may be performed in subsequent performances after the
debut concert. All submissions must be postmarked by May 21, 2007. Selected
works will be announced on September 17, 2007. Submission of the work(s) on
compact disc must be accompanied by the submission form and sent to:
