Website | http://muvi-visualmusic.tumblr.com/ |
Abstract registration deadline | September 30, 2017 |
Submission deadline | September 30, 2017 |
MuVi5 invites artists, musicians, designers and performers, also professors and university students, to submit
proposals of kinetic works to be part of a public exhibition, with performances and discussions.
Visual Music exhibition is part of the Sixth International Congress "Synaesthesia: Science & Art", to be held
from the 18th to the 22th of May 2018, Palacio Abacial y Convento de Capuchinos, Alcalá la Real (Jaén, Spain).
The topic of the exhibition is visual music and synesthesia. For “visual music”, we intend every representation
to be only visual or audiovisual, suggested by the music.
The correspondences between the visual and music can be the results of synesthetic perceptions (the visuals
are the mental images suggested by the music); or the correspondences can be the result of studies on the
analogies between the visual and musical languages (rhythms, tonality, texture, colours, etc.). The support of
a narrative thread is not required.
Submission Guidelines
The call is for two categories of participants:
. Participant A: professionals (artists, musicians, designers and performers)
. Participant B: university (B1: professors; B2: students, or graduated within the last 24 months).
What can you submit?
Any Moving Image (video, animations, etc.) – only visual kinetic work, audiovisual, or interactive
– is eligible for submission. University professors can submit a collection of didactic works. Students, one or
more works, produced in an university course.
The work does not have to be published and must be free from copyrights.
