Invitation to contribute to ListenHereNow \u2013 a listening map project<\/strong>
\nhttp:\/\/www.ListenHereNow.org<\/a><\/p>\n

The City Meditation Crew is curating and creating a series of audio works, and images, to compose a listening map for digital and print distribution. The first map entries are focused upon water: its myriad forms, metaphoric possibilities, and imaginative associations. Audio works may be in any recorded audio form: essays, poetry, music, experimental audio, documentary sound\u2026We are interested in audio works inspired by listening to urban and landscapes.<\/p>\n

Check out the founding contributors\u2019 work here: http:\/\/www.ListenHereNow.org.<\/a><\/p>\n

City Meditation Crew will reside in Seattle in July to meet with anyone interested in contributing to the map. Anne Beffel, Associate Professor of Art at Syracuse University is serving as contact person for the City Meditation Crew workers, who prefer to remain highly visible but primarily nameless.
