Call for new commissions

Pixel Palace is commissioning four new audio works for BASIC.fm. Each work will be hosted for a month on continuous play and the first commission will go live in November.

We are seeking artists who use sound as a medium in unexpected,
exciting and innovative ways. This may include work that may act in a
similar way to hold music or radio and television test signals.

This call is open to all artists, musicians, field recordists and sonic artists regardless of nationality, age, or career stage.

Commission proposals must include:
- Title and description of proposed audio work for BASIC.fm (100 words maximum)
- Examples of past work (please provide links to work as large email large media files cannot be accepted)
- CV and contact information
