Subject: [Sursound] Call: Europe's Ninth Student 3D Audio Production Competition, Nov. 2025
Dear colleagues & friends,
We happily announce the call for Europe's Ninth Student 3D Audio
Production Competition, and vdt (German tonmeisters) will host the event
in cooperation with IEM Graz and Sounding Future and present the final
ranks of the finalists in a public ceremony at Tonmeistertagung in
Düsseldorf (Nov. 12th to 15th) live and via internet live stream,
complemented by on-demand browser playback via Cat3DA (see
https://tonmeister.org/en/rubrics/3d-audio-competition/2024/ for last
year's finalists).
Also this year, the Austrian ORF Ö1 radio station and its contemporary
music festival ORF musikprotokoll will be our partners to host a
pre-final public presentation (Oct. 3rd, 2025) of the category 1
finalists at Dom im Berg, Graz.
We encourage all students who deal with spatial music, spatial
recording, or who are interested in spatial-ized sound to participate by
submitting short works to the Ninth Student 3D Audio Production
Competition for one of the three categories:
(1) contemporary / computer music (11min),
(2) audio drama / documentary / soundscapes (4min),
(3) music recording / studio production (4min).
The format requirements for preparing a submission and exemplary tools
to check are given here https://iaem.at/ambisonics/s3dapc/2025 and of
course you can get in touch if there are questions: <s3d...@iem.at>
The submission portal
https://easychair.org/account2/signin?l=2988979000613502275
is open until June 30th 2024.
An international jury will assess the submissions concerning the
creative and technical quality, providing feedback to all the
participants of the competition. Based on the resulting ranking, the
finalists will be selected for presentation at our award ceremony in
November 2025 at Tonmeistertagung. Moreover, finalist works for category
(1) will be presented at musikprotokoll festival of the Austrian
contemporary/classic radio program (ORF OE1) on October 3rd, 2025. The
finalists will be notified and requested to (virtually) attend the
meeting to receive their award, the jury’s comments, and say a few words
about their submissions.
The nominated submissions will be made available via the Cat3DA player
at tonmeister.org for head-tracked binaural playback on demand, and we
will air a live video stream of the S3DAPC finals over the internet. The
S3DAPC finals with the awards ceremony will be the platform to present
and celebrate the nominees and their submissions.
We encourage institutions with loudspeaker facilities and space for this
celebration to organize live breakout sessions. These are connected via
stereo live stream for the speech parts of the event, but local
listeners enjoy 5th-order playback of the submissions on loudspeakers.
Best regards,
Matthias Franz
