A "Happy Hour" between the early and late night performances is sponsored by the Canadian Music Centre and will include a free drink to all in attendance of the early evening performances as well as free free CD give-a-ways by the CMC and New Adventures in Sound Art.

Transmissions sans Frontières - CSIRP Radio Art Conference

Victoria College Building
91 Charles Street West, Toronto

For registration info go to www.deepwireless.ca/tsf

Transmissions sans Frontières is a two-day conference sponsored by The Canadian Society for Independent Radio Production (CSIRP) with funding from the Ontario Trillium Foundation. Immediately following the International Features Conference in Toronto, it will offer attendees an opportunity to explore radio with some of the finest in Canadian, European, and American radio producers.

Presenters include: Peter Leonhard Braun, Garvia Bailey; Victoria Fenner, Anna Friz, Christos Hatzis, Kari Hesthamar, Julie Shapiro, Laurence Stevenson, Steve Wadhams, Gregory Whitehead, and Barb Woolner.

Transmissions sans Frontières is about transcending boundaries -- boundaries between art forms, boundaries between countries, boundaries between public and community broadcasting. It will encourage us to think of the airspace we all share, and how we can make the airwaves resonate with new voices and new ways of presenting ideas.

CSIRP was founded to serve the needs of Canadian radio producers in all sectors - community radio, public radio, and commercial radio. They host workshops, sponsor projects, and distribute a regular newsletter. Since their launch they have presented the Full Moon Audio Art Camp each year, the Creative Radio Initiative, now in its second year, and have produced two volumes of Radiant Dissonance, a radio series by Canadian audio artists which is heard on more than fifty stations in Canada and abroad.

New Commissions/Residencies

Now in its second year, Deep Wireless has initiated a special commissioning/residency opportunity co-produced with CBC Radio's "Out Front" and Charles Street Video. Four Canadian artists (Playwright Mark Brownell, radio documentarian Dan Hart, sound artist Kathy Kennedy, and violinist/audio artist Reena Katz) were selected from a Canadian-wide call for submissions to produce a work for both CBC radio broadcast and octaphonic concert spatialization that combines sound exploration and personal narrative in innovative ways.
