Only one week left for artists submit their sounds to the DJ Battle record you’ll all been waiting for: The Sound of Art. This record compiles and organizes art sounds by gallery location —  Manhattan (side A) and Brooklyn (side B) — for one giant DJ face off this November!

On a gender note, an interesting divide I couldn’t have predicted has occurred in the submission process thus far: Manhattan submissions have been works made by predominantly female artists, while Brooklyn is overwhelmingly male. I’m not sure this *means* anything, but we’re hoping a few more Brooklyn based ladies contact us with their sounds. Brooklyn just won’t be the same without them!

Submission Instructions
We need your sounds! If you have been in a gallery or museum exhibition over the last five years with a noise soundtrack, or you are a part of a gallery or collective that has a relevant exhibition, send us your submissions by September 3, 2010. Note, the sounds must be from a work that was exhibited in the past five years or is currently being shown in Manhattan or Brooklyn. Contact Art Fag City at michelle@artfagcity.com using the headline Sound of Art Submission. Please include the following information:

  • The location and date your sound work was performed/exhibited
  • Audio or video documentation of your work not exceeding five minutes.
  • The names and contact information for any collaborators who participated in your project.
