A Curated Directory of Sound Art and Electroacoustic Music Related Calls in and around Austria

[ARTIFICIAL] TERRITORIES is an exhibition exclusively dedicated to interactive works, but also welcoming submissions that integrate AI, whether as the primary medium or as a tool. While AI-generated or AI-assisted art often repurposes pre-existing material, raising significant ethical and copyright concerns, we also see AI as a democratizing force that can broaden creative expression or serve as a “hackable” resource. We invite artists to critique, embrace, or subvert AI’s role.

In the MANTRA The Art of Healing project we propose the production and proposal of art as a healing way to solve problems.

The works created for MANTRA MUSLAB 2025 are inspired by and based on the healing power potential of a “Mantra” aimed at healing for a transformation and regeneration of the world and of ourselves in favor of positive values ​​such as health, respect, equality, balance, peace and many other related values.

Art is a very powerful instrument that has many capabilities, from being a witnessof history and create a memory of it until it can be transformed, functioning as a mutant element that transforms the environment, society and its individuals. We believe in the capacity of art as a generator of consciousness.

New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) invites artists of all ages and nationalities to submit works on the theme ”Sound Culture” for consideration in New Adventures in Sound Art’s 2026 programming.

How do the sounds of a community reflect and convey its ethics, philosophies and general way of life? How does the design of space and the sounds found there form the sonic identity and character of a community?

NAISA encourages artists to submit works for interactive sound installations and sound sculptures for indoor and outdoor contexts. NAISA also accepts works for fixed media audio or audio-visual works, performances, livestreaming and any emerging digital formats that include sound as a primary element. Preference is for works that are already completed.
