SOUNDBOX 6
BIOSPHERE REMIX
6th ANNUAL FESTIVAL | MAY 22ND - 26TH, 2023 | OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY
Soundbox 6 is a festival of makers in music, technology, poetry, art, engineering, science and more.
This year's theme, Biosphere Remix, invites interdisciplinary artists to explore themes of creativity and conservation.
The Biosphere is a complex, interconnected system that sustains all life on Earth. Submissions explore many aspects of the Biosphere, including biodiversity, ecosystems, climate change, sustainable living and environmental justice. We ask artists to explore the possibilities of re-mixing the natural world by re-using existing materials or incorporating technology. Artworks that incorporate recycled or repurposed digital or physical materials are highly encouraged.
Originally founded in 2017, this is the sixth annual running of the interdisciplinary Soundbox festival at Oregon State University.
The Soundbox Festival would like to acknowledge that Oregon State University in Corvallis, Oregon, is located within the traditional homelands of the Marys River or Ampinefu Band of Kalapuya. Following the Willamette Valley Treaty of 1855, Kalapuya people were forcibly removed to reservations in Western Oregon. Today, living descendants of these people are a part of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde Community of Oregon (grandronde.org) and the Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians (ctsi.nsn.us).
REGISTRATION
All events are free and open to all OSU community members and the general public. No registration is required!
