Off Grid
1 to 2 May 2021
Soundcamp 2021 will be out-side.
We propose / call for / invite events at different scales at points of listening around the earth.
See the call for streams, soundcamps, radios.
To register your interest / take part, please sign up.
SC in London will organise the 8th edition of the long form radio broadcast: Reveil, as a frame for these autonomous activities.
Reveil tracks the sounds of sunrise from 5AM UTC+1 on the first of May, travelling West on live audio feeds from streamers on the Locus Sonus soundmap. It tunes to the sounds of weather, machines, migrating birds, air traffic - creating a collective soundwork lasting one earth day.
Many of the live streams come from soundcamps - small or larger gatherings set up to supply a feed and as a way to be outdoors on Dawn Chorus Day. Sites for soundcamps have included inner city green spaces, remote cloud forests, swamps and rooftops - anywhere things sound interesting. They have ranged from audiences of hundreds to soundcamps of one or two. You can use a laptop, phone or Raspberry pi to send a live stream at daybreak from your location.
On May 1st on the verge of Summer, as different places are coming out-side in different configurations, we invite you to plan an outing of whatever size is feasible and good for the situation where you are, taking the term: off-grid as a point of reference.
After the hiatus of 2020, SC London will be at Stave Hill, the UK's first urban ecology park, with a program of Far Away Dance (ATOM), DIY sound pavilion (PITCH2 - Public Works), the Acoustic Commons Study Group (Ella Finer), plus walks, talks, screenings, workshops, bat group, live and remote performances from parallel events in Ljubljana, Tokyo, Aix-Marseille, Barrow-in-Furness, Sunshine Coast, Black Forest..
