Please excuse x-posting

Virginia Tech’s School of Performing Arts (SOPA) is inviting applications and nominations for its next director.

Over the past decade Virginia Tech has undergone a major transformation and is currently investing over $300M into University-wide transdisciplinary initiatives, including the Creativity and Innovation District. SOPA (http://www.performingarts.vt.edu/) is the home of Digital Interactive Sound & Intermedia Studio (DISIS, http://disis.music.vt.edu) and Linux Laptop Orchestra (L2Ork, http://l2ork.music.vt.edu) and the school is about to introduce a new Creative Technologies in Music undergraduate program.

SOPA also offers a rich, diverse, and vibrant community of over 60 faculty in music, theatre, and cinema, and staff, and works closely with the Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology (ICAT, http://www.icat.vt.edu), and the Moss Arts Center (https://www.artscenter.vt.edu), both of which are housed in a new $100M building, including the cutting-edge infrastructure, like the 140+ loudspeaker Cube with comprehensive motion capture and most recently the Cyclorama, a 360-degree 3D collaborative visual display.
