The print journal, Acoustic Space is a forum for net.radio, sound art and creative explorations in the networked electro-acoustic environments. Now in its 6th edition, Acoustic Space WAVES Issue will deal with properties of waves in imaginative ways, exploring, making visible or making us feel waves on a host of different bands of the spectrum.
The main thesis behind the WAVES idea is that when artists take waves seriously as the medium of their artwork, they start questioning the boundaries of what can be done with this medium. Electronic information is a tightly controlled sphere. Yet artists with their electronic DIY kits have found numerous ways of thinking outside the box, makig their own
waves, creating alternative networks and facilities or creatively abusing existing technology.
The publication seeks to offer a space of exchange for artists, scientists, media theorists, radio activists and new media practitioners who are exploring ideas and notions in relation to electromagnetic waves, spectrum space, and also waves as a universal principle.
