For those participants who can remain in Toronto for one more day we have arranged the following special workshop. Space is limited, so be sure to register early for both the Radio Without Boundaries conference and the Saying it with Sound workshop. There is an additional registration fee for Saying it with Sound .

This workshop will introduce tools, (technical, aesthetic, and analytical) to express ideas in radio not just with words but with sounds as well. It will explore the sonic dimensions of stories and introduce ways to elevate the compositional dimension of an effective listening experience over the radio. The workshop is broken into two parts. The first part will analyze and discuss existing radio works that use sound in a compelling way, and that find interesting balances between verbal and non-verbal elements. The second part will introduce production techniques common in electroacoustic sound practice but not commonly known in radio. These techniques do not always require a study in music or computational mathematics to use them, and often can be manipulated very intuitively once their basic parameters are understood.

Accommodations

The cheapest accommodation we've been able to find is at Victoria College (part of University of Toronto) at $47 per night (includes breakfast). The bathrooms/shower facilities are shared. It is part of a school residence that is empty between May 10 - Aug 27, 2004. You can book your room on-line at http://vicu.utoronto.ca/food/accommodation.htm#short
