The Audire/Connecting Commutes call for works has been extended until 17 February.
Connecting Commutes is an artistic project, developed within the framework of Braga 25, which chooses listening as a sensory practice that promotes reflection and experimentation.
The project is based on the concepts of mobility, territory, heritage, landscape, public space and community, opening up avenues of creation in the field of sound and also in the thinking associated with this theme.
The project’s main partners are the Audire research group (CECS) and TUB – Empresa de Transportes Urbanos de Braga. Between March and September 2025, sound works will be presented inside the network’s buses and will also be made available online. Associated with the sound content, there will also be a publication of written essays on the project’s theme and the sound content itself.
This call for papers invites researchers and the academic community in general to submit written essays and sound pieces. Sound pieces should be between 3 and 15 minutes long, in any of the following genres: radio art, soundscape, documentary, installation, audio routes and musical composition. Written essays should have a maximum of 5000 characters. Both formats – sound piece and written essay – must be original works, either unpublished or already published.
