HOPE
A Collection of Minute Soundworks
Audio CD - Various Artists


INVITATION


We would like to invite you to contribute to a limited edition audio CD
compilation of one-minute pieces by international sound artists, experimental
composers, noise makers and other audio creators. We are asking contributors to
create an original recording of one-minute duration for the CD on the theme of
HOPE.

The CD will be made available in the first instance to delegates of the ninth
International Symposium on Electronic Arts (ISEA98), to be held in
Liverpool and
Manchester in September 1998. Staged in a different city each year, the
presentation of the ninth ISEA in Liverpool and Manchester in 1998 represents
the first time that Britain has hosted the event. Previous ISEAs have been
staged in Sydney, Helsinki, Montreal, Rotterdam and Chicago.

We are planning to focus on sound a lot more than previous ISEAs and will be
inviting a number of contributors over the following months. Robin Rimbaud aka
Scanner will be a Visiting Fellow at Liverpool Art School for a period leading
up to September and will present a work at the event.

The theme of ISEA98 in Liverpool is Revolution and in Manchester, the Terror
