4DSOUND explores spatial sound as a medium. Since 2008, it has developed an innovative spatial sound technology that has significantly improved and expanded the possibilities to create, perform and experience sound spatially. 4DSOUND is a fully omnidirectional sound environment, where the listener can appreciate sound in a virtually unlimited spatial continuum.
Within the context of this collaboration IMA and 4DSOUND award composers, musicians, sound artists and music programmers two working grants for the creation or composition of new electro-acoustic works. The grants are intended for on-site work at the ZKM in Karlsruhe from February 8th until March 8th 2016.
Closing date for applications is December 13th, 2015 (date of postmark, receipt of e-mail). Further information can be found here: bit.ly/1NvIRK8
