Call for Works
The New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival invites the
submission of art works incorporating experimental audio in any
capacity, including, but not limited to:

* concert works incorporating digital audio--works including
performers, videos, and other elements are encouraged.

* installations--to be exhibited for all or part of the festival.

* experimental approaches--propose your own involvement with the
festival.

All works, installations, and proposals will be submitted through the
online submission site,
http://submit.nycemf.org/
All file formats are accepted.

The deadline for submissions is November 1, 2009.

Call for Curated Concerts

Groups of composers (studios, organizations, etc.) are invited to
submit proposals to present an entire concert of works. The program
may not exceed one hour, including any introductory remarks. Only the
curators will be required to attend, and the registration fees for
each piece will be heavily discounted. Emerging artists are especially
encouraged to submit.

Spaces

The festival will take place at the CUNY Graduate Center, at 365 Fifth
Ave, New York City (in the shadow of the Empire State building). There
are two on-site performance spaces:

Elebash Hall

a 180 fixed-seat theater with full stage and video capabilities. 
Emphasis on works with multiple performers. 8.1 Meyer speakers, more
TBA.

Segal Theater

80 movable-seat black-box-like theater with stage area and full video
capabilities. Emphasis on single-performer and fixed media works. 8.1
Genelec speakers.

Off-Site Venues

Three late-night events will take place in various NYC venues. NYCEMF
programs works in these venues based on artists’ preference. We expect
to host at least one concert at Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, and
we will update the web site if other spaces are available.

arrangement diagrams, photos of the spaces, and a complete list of
NYCEMF equipment, visit

NYCEMF Performers

NYCEMF will supply instrumentalists to support the performance of a
limited number of selected works. We will not be able to provide
performers for every piece that is accepted, so composers and artists
who can supply their own performers are encouraged. Composers can
express their interest using the submissions form.

Submission Guidelines

Composers may submit up to two works, an installation, and a curated
concert.

For Concert Works

Length – We encourage the submission of works under 12 minutes, but
will consider a small number of longer works, to which more selective
criteria will be applied. Works longer than 20 minutes will not be
considered.

Logistics – We will consider all submissions regardless of the
complexity of setup. However, please be aware that we will only be
able to accept a limited number of large-ensemble or logistically
demanding works.

Attendance and Registration

Composers and artists whose submissions are selected for presentation
at NYCEMF will be required to attend and to pay a registration fee,
which is expected to be $125-150. NYCEMF is a nonprofit festival; the
fee supports a substantial schedule of diverse events.
