THEME
The practice of “remote orienteering” suggests generating content and schematics in our conduct. Equally applicable for radical means of urban subversion, “remote orienteering” is the key process which the entries of ctrl-alt-del should be directed.

The pieces are asked to be compliant with the following subjects in order to create an intellectual climate of comprehension and discussion:

1. sounds for orientation, or sound as orientation.
2. distant sounds or sound in spatial contexts
3. sound and cultural subversion

SUBMISSION MATERIALS
1. Two audio CD’s (original and a copy) of only ONE piece is the format of the submission. Piece will not be more than 4 minutes long. Projects which rely on specific visual documentation can be submitted on a DVD, but in any case clip should not be longer than 4 minutes.
2. The name of the participant and the name of the piece(s) should be written on this CD with a permanent marker.
3. An A4 size page with name, address, e-mail and telephone number of the participant, and the names of the piece will be submitted.
4. An optional, separate A4 size page with a description, clarification or reflection could be submitted depending completely on the desire of the participant. These optional documents will not be used for evaluation, but they could be used in later stages.

The works should be at the below mailing address before the 29th of June, 2007:
Basak Senova PK 16 Suadiye 34741 Istanbul, Turkey
