This one day workshop on creative sonic futures will feature presentations by 7 international researcher-practitioners working in the areas of sound, music, and mobile and locative media, followed by hands-on experimentation with the emerging concept and practice of situated composition. Situated composition involves new possibilities for people with widely varying levels of expertise to work with sound in an unprecedented range of contexts facilitated by the growing accessibility and mobility of sound tools, such as digital recorders, smart phones, and tablets. Taking the idea of composition in a broad sense, situated composition also serves as a concept for thinking through the multiple interrelated conditions that foster and arise from creative sound practices, including the mixture of material, social, virtual and digital elements that continuously co-compose one another.
