San
Francisco Magazine Honors Project>Soundwave as the BEST
Project>Soundwave Awarded 'Best Sound Sculptures - Future Classic'
in Annual Best of the Bay Issue
(SAN FRANCISCO - August 15, 2007) ME'D1.ATE
Network is estatic to announce that Project>Soundwave has
been awarded BEST SOUND SCULPTURES - FUTURE CLASSIC by San Francisco
Magazine's THE BEST '07 issue! The July 2007 annual issue covers
the Bay Area's best things comparing a Classic (an SF institution)
to a Future Classic (up and coming institution). We were compared
to the venerable AUDIUM. Below is the article:
------------------------------------------------
THE BEST '07
SOUND SCULPTURES
------------------------------------------------
CLASSIC: The space-age Audium, a classic "theater of sound-sculpted
space," opened in 1965, and ever since we've been fulfilling
our need for shaped sound waves with its 169 insanely powerful
speakers while settled in its cushy seats. Intensity, motion,
lightness, and heft are but a few themes of the venue's regular
Friday and Saturday night events, which afford entertainment
for all connoisseurs of experimental performance. www.audium.org
FUTURE CLASSIC: Risk the jagged, metallic edges of postmodern
cacophonous howl at Project>Soundwave's periodic exhibitions
at the likes of the Lab, the Luggage Store, and Artists' Television
Access. Since 2004, the group has been capturing cutting-edge
play with screeches, choral loops, bleeps and blips, earthy
drum rhythyms, and feedback that toy with the concept of audio
landscapes. They've even releaseed a CD - just the thing to
drown out the screech of BART going through the tube. www.projectsoundwave.com
We
are completely humbled by the honor. We share this with all
the artists of Project>Soundwave and the Soundwave>Series,
everyone that helped make the series/productions happen, and
the amazing support from those who attended the shows or bought
a CD. Congratulations!
We are hard at work on Season ((3)), developing an unbelievable
program and hoping to live up the title of a San Francisco Future
Classic. Stay tuned for details.
