Second Square To None


Ten Second Rule submissions please!

Wednesday, July 29, 2009 • , • 0 comments

We want a large collection of 10 second long pieces of audio / music made by people based in Ireland. As digital media proliferates, attention spans grow smaller, and as the recession flourishes a lot of creative people now have a lot of free time on their hands! So what better way to pass this time than to make a ridiculously short piece of music...

There are only 3 rules with this: submissions must be
  1. exactly 10 seconds long,
  2. original (i.e. not somebody else's copyrighted music)
  3. be in uncompressed .wav or .aif format.
One per artist please. The music or recording can be in any style, and is not restricted to electronic music. So far we've asked artists who have played at our events previously, and would now like to open the project to anyone who wants to contribute.

The deadline is September 15th.

Why

  • Submissions will be presented publically at our gig during the festival (more details coming soon), and on a special page on our website in a suitably quadrilateral style.

  • We have invited 5 acts to use these submissions as the basis of their livesets - you will hear your sounds re-interpreted in a variety of different ways depending on the artist in question. The pool of sounds / music we have so far is deep and wide, and the more there are the more the live acts have to work with.

  • You will be playing a small but important part in an internationally recognised art festival and your sense of achievment will last a lot longer than 10 seconds!

Tell any Irish-based people you know who might be interested please!

You can upload your Ten Second pieces to our dropbox below, or email us.
