about Seven Seconds about Seven Seconds

The book 'Media Unlimited' by Todd Gitlin describes how the average length of time needed today to comprehend new information is approx. seven seconds. This is the reason why sound bites heard on TV and radio fit into this time frame. It would be an interesting task to create sound works that also fit within this time frame...

so here is a new microsound project:

  • create a piece no longer than seven seconds
  • there should a strong structural element (i.e., A-B-A, A-B-B-A, A-B-C-A, etc)...(it can be layered as well...for example: one layer consists of one sort of structure and another consists of a different one)
  • the piece should NOT be monochromatic (i.e., it should use different types of sounds)

the deadline for submissions has passed.
