[tamas szakal]

Call for participation in:

Sonic Tags Workshop
10-14 October 2005,
Budapest


As an offshoot of the Re:Activism conference, Sonic Tags workshop  
aims to do a bit of city-programming, filling dedicated parts of  
Budapest with unusual sounds, words, atmospheres, through creating  
event triggered, localized broadcasts of poetic instances.

The one-week workshop is planned to embrace both
- hands on prototyping of simple broadcast technologies, as well as
- developing the poetics of micro-broadcasts, defining and recording  
event triggered messages, ending with the results broadcasted over  
special parts of the city presented at the conference and exhibited  
in a gallery space.

Special guest participants include Peter Finch, Welsh sound poet;  
Lajos Parti Nagy, hungarian poet and writer; Adam Hyde, new media  
artist from New Zeland; Tetsuo Kogawa, radio artist via livestream  
from Tokyo and others...
