~ January 4th 2007 Deadline for Entries ~

http://www.cyndustries.com//bugmusic_entries.cfm

Between now and January 4th 2007, you have five-weeks to make a short piece of new
music,(up to 3-minutes long) supporting this year's theme of "WAR & PEACE".

The contest is totally "open season" technically, with any and all types of synthesis
allowed, that's laptops, modulars, keyboards, virtual or actual, whatever,
( just please do not exceed the 3-minute time limit).
Listeners across the web will vote for their favorite musical entries.

Aleatoric Music is named after "alea" the latin word for "dice", and is music guided
randomly or by chance, (described simply as, "Bug Music"by some people). We're
stretching this ruleto include new musical composition guided by humans as well,
(hey, that would be YOU!)

Just what ~can~ you do with your arsenal of gadgets? Let's hear it everybody,
you might even win a shiney new Zeroscillator!

On your mark, get set, and BLEEP!

So sad to see it turn into a commercial venture. Oh well.

C'mon, Jay, it's not like there's a registration fee, and the prize
is valuable!

With 2006 reaching it's end, it didn't look as though anyone else was
running such a contest this year. So, I say, "Thanks, Cynthia!"

Sure there is! The right to republish and profit off your work.

Yeah, there is *such* a lucrative market for bug music. ;-)

I see your point, though. Me, I'd happily trade 3 minutes of bug
music for a chance on a ZO.

I should hurry and build some of the CGS boards I've got on the shelf
-- the more modules, the buggier!
