productions from 11 different countries were entered in the prize.
The winners were Joaquin Cofreces (Terre de feu) Alessandro Bosetti

The Artists Voice/Sound Lab is calling all artists and vocalists interested in experimental sound.

Sept. 11, 2pm Machine Project http://machineproject.com/

HOW IT BEGAN
I started AVSL in response to working with a few inspiring visual, performing and media artists using voice in their work, and interested in pushing it further. This group offers those artists, and those of you I don't know yet, an opportunity to cultivate your own voices and to act as each others sonic resource.

HOW IT WORKS
The group will meet at Machine Project (1200D N. Alvarado) in Echo Park where we will:
1. Build our voices and feed our ears
3. Experiment with, and realize ideas brought in by individual members
4. Document these works for use in that artist's video/installation/performance etc.
