FAQ


Our mission is to unite the full MIT community around spoken word and music.  We welcome all students, faculty, alumni and staff who have work to represent their connection to MIT.  We would love to have involvement from people who are associated all aspects of MIT.  

Here's a link to our presentation made for the first info sessions.

Yes, we will consider work that has already been made public.  You'll submit a link to the published work (on Spotify or soundcloud) and people can click through to it. This will help  us promote your work.

Yes!  We are aware there are many talented musicians who have graduated or left MIT. Feel free to submit your work. As long as one person on your team has had a  kerberos at one point in time, your entry will qualify.

Yes, but you miss the feedback session and take a risk that we won't publish your work. If you submit earlier http://to/submitverses  and we are able to give feedback to fine tune it, then you may resubmit.

Yes, partner with an MIT affiliated person! Here are some people looking to join a team or help out. Having an MIT affiliated person's content is one of the criteria. If you are not an MIT affiliated person, you could partner with one to put some aspect of work on your submission. An MIT affiliated person is considered to have had an Athena kerberos account (e.g. @mit.edu address) - and past and present includes all alumni, students, faculty, staff, workers.  Here are some people looking to join a team or help out.  They could contribute a sample, the lyrics, or composition for your piece. As long as you can list them in your credits, it would count.

Create your file and upload it using this form http://to/submitverses by Sept. 22,  2023.
