[locustream] CFP reminder: Koli soundscape conference
by Eric Leonardson 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

IDEOLOGIES AND ETHICS IN THE USES AND ABUSES OF SOUND Koli, Finland, June 16-19, 2010 CALL FOR PAPERS (reminder: abstracts by October 12) The 2010 WFAE conference will be held at Koli in Eastern Finland. Koli is a plausible site for reflecting upon ideologies, ethics and soundscapes, since it was amongst the key places of the national romantic artist pilgrims in the late 19th century Finland. The main organisers, Department of Finnish Language and Cultural Research at the University of Joensuu, Finland and The Finnish Society for Acoustic Ecology (FSAE) invite researchers and artists from all disciplines to join this forum of discussion. Confirmed invited and keynote speakers are (in alphabetical order): Steven Feld, Charles Hirschkind, Bruce Johnson, Anahid Kassabian, Andra McCartney, R. Murray Schafer, Barry Truax and Hildegard Westerkamp. More information at: http://www.joensuu.fi/soundscapes Proposals are invited for papers, workshops, roundtable, or artistic contributions relating to, but not limited to the following topics: NATIONS, NATIONALISM AND SOUNDSCAPE There has been an abundance of research on the topic of nationalism and music. What about nationalism and soundscape? Within sound of religious movements Martin Stokes mentioned recently that in order to understand certain Islamic movements today it would be crucial to understand their soundscapes. Collective listening or giving ?voices? to subjects and their religious experiences, are some examples. CONSTRUCTING PAST AND PROGRESS IN THE USES AND ABUSES OF SOUND Both past and progress can be used and abused as part of many ideologies. Have past soundscapes been used as a resource as part of these negotiations? The ideology of progress, then, is intimately related to the acceptance of noise as an inevitable phenomenon. ETHICAL CHALLENGES OF WORKING WITH THE SOUNDS How do soundscape researchers and artists answer to the ethical challenges of working with the sounds of other people ? and of themselves. How do we understand cultural convergences, differences and sameness? Or would it just be more important to learn to tolerate the other? Should the researcher or artist make an intervention -- or would it be best just to observe the uses and abuses of sounds from outside? THE COMMODIFICATION OF AURAL SPACE, SOUND AND SILENCE How does silence, its commodification and tourism fit under the same sky? What kind of strategies can the citizens and planners develop in different localities in order to guarantee the soundscape comfort, tourism as a means of livelihood and the touristic search of silence all at the same time? What about the urban environment with its ubiquitous transphonic phenomena? Who has the right to fill the urban space with music, and how is it currently happening? Please send ABSTRACTS (max. 400 words) by October 12, 2009 to the conference e-mail address koli(a)akueko.com. The abstracts are being dealt with in early November, and the people whose papers and sonic art works are chosen to be presented will be notified on November 10. ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Eric Leonardson E-mail: eric(a)ericleonardson.org <mailto:eric@ericleonardson.org> Homepage: http://ericleonardson.org/whatsnew/ World Listening Project: http://www.worldlisteningproject.org <http://www.worldlisteningproject.org/> Midwest Society for Acoustic Ecology: http://mwsae.org <http://mwsae.org/> Delicious: http://delicious.com/eleon Twitter: http://twitter.com/eleona Myspace: http://www.myspace.com/ericleonardson Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/eleonardson/ YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/ericleonardson Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/eric.leonardson mobile: 773-218-5796 skype: worldlistening

Dear Streamers, I had promised the organizers of the event in Paris that they would have a least 20 streams to listen to. It seems there are still only a few mics connected... Please get back to us if you still have unresolved problems. Thank you very much in advance.

[locustream] World Listening Day, July 18
by Eric Leonardson 12 Nov '10

12 Nov '10

Dear Locustreamers, I'd like to inform you of World Listening Project's effort to hold the first World Listening Day on July 18, 2010 (R. Murray Schafer's birthday). Dan Godston is the main organizer for World Listening Day. I've attached a Word file about the event. Dan can answer specific questions. I have attached a pdf explaining the purpose of the event and how you may get involved. (Hopefully the lisserv allows attachements.) World Listening Day is open to a variety of actions and interpretations. Happily, we have a growing list of interesting people who are participating. Finally, I'd like to emphasize that we have no one in Africa participating yet. Perhaps KRN in Dakar and Emeeka in Lagos can do something foe World Listening Day. What do you think?

[locustream] Please open your mikes!

Dear Streamers, Between NOV 8th and DEC 2nd Locus Sonus will be participating in an event in Paris dedicated to Innovation and organised by SFR (the mobile phone provider). Locus Sonus is presenting a new variation of LocuStream Project called Locustream i-map. An i-phone and Android application proposing a version of the stream map that a user can download to listen to your streams on his mobile phone, ipad or iphone. It's very challenging project and we are as usual very much counting on your active participation. We have noticed lately that very few of your streams are active. It would be great if you could let us know if you have a problem with your stream box and how we could help you to solve it. Maybe your streambox has a problem? In which case we can send you a new flash card with an updated system. Maybe you have a problem with your microphone? Maybe you did not take the time to plug your new streambox? Maybe you want to quit the project? In this case we would like to recuperate your stream box so that it can be set up somewhere else. Please let us know! Thanks in advance for your answer. Warm regards. Anne, Peter, Jérôme, Alejo
