Invites entries on Women and Sound Technologies
These can be real and imaginary journeys of a gramophone singer, the telephone girl, the radio announcer, the crooner, the dubbing artist, or the one who tunes in to listen to her favourite song. This could be a play with noise, silence or rage. Or this could be a bot.

Send us sounds that animate the world of recording, fragmenting, copying, archiving and listening to sound. Tell us stories, share conversations, create soundtracks of words, music, noise, and silence. Send us sound. Audio documentaries, art, field notes, music, noise and poetry. We encourage a diverse exploration of ideas and form. Share your work. Send us the sounds you want to hear!
