SOUNDplay is a meeting point for experimentation in sound art and new media encouraging new avenues for exploration.
"In a world where technological advancement is seen as being the way to move forward, sound artists are continually challenged to reevaluate their artistic practice in the light of changing technologies. This year's SOUNDplay uses the theme of HOME as a starting point for exploring new approaches to artistic creation as artists play with the possibilities of sound by both re-discovering old technologies and venturing into new ground to establish a whole new set of rules for artistic engagement." Darren Copeland, Artistic Director, New Adventures in Sound Art.
Located at various venues in the Artscape Wychwood Barns, SOUNDplay 2011 includes multi-media performances, installations, workshops and videomusic screenings.
Featured artists include: Zazalie Z (with artist talk co-presented by Le Labo), Freida Abtan (co-presented by the Toronto Animated Image Society), Kaiser Nietzsche, Benjamin Thigpen, Max Alexander, Darren Copeland, and works by the Jeu de temps winners co-presented with the Canadian Electroacoustic Community and many more.
