Dear friends and non-friends, comrades, non-comrades, phase angels!

Alienation Index is here, and we are happy to inform you that our first release with article number zero is coming and will be out in June with exclusive art boxes.

 

However, we are going to dive after something very special for the second one - which will be the official first - a constituent body - a magi’s assemblage - a compilation of works on the topic we are concerned most in our occult group / record label which is becoming, and more particularly - becoming alien.

​

We are thrilled to set forth an OPEN CALL for the next "Alienation Index" release!

​

We are looking for works that would liberate us from our presuppositions of ourselves and the form itself and, in doing so, would unveil something alien within - just like sound unveils traces of sonorous.. We are looking for music (or rather non-music) that goes beyond what we are used to.

 

Be it concrete music, acousmatic, electroacoustic, experimental electronics, noise, field recordings, or/and anything one would call non-music.

 

Non-music for non-humans)

​

With this gathering, we aim to create a collective art piece that reflects on the alien/stranger theme from multiple perspectives, forming a sort of constellation with them. 

A composition of selected works will be published on CD with a high-quality booklet recovering artistic processes, concepts, reviews, and artworks, packed in an art box with unique individual sets of bookmarks and stickers.

Yet, besides that, the resulting assemblage might appear in various forms.

For instance, we hope to organise some live events around occurring sequences of art mutations and to build a supportive community of strangers. ​

​

As a selected and published artist, you will get a physical body of the recording with the whole art set, free download links to a digital album, distribution, media support, engagement in collective decisions on this release, and, potentially, participation in future live events.

 

To apply, please send a download link to one previously unpublished track (you can use any file transfer, such as Wetransfer, Google Drive, etc.) with the information you would like to provide: name, description, materials, technique, artist’s bio, links, and so to alienationindex{@}gmail{.}com 

or through the form below.

 

We consider works without any information as well; besides that, we are open to and curious about your conceptual framework, visual art, or anything you would add to accompany this work.

​

The track should be 1-16 min long, 44.1 kHz, 16-bit stereo WAV format. Ambisonic works should be rendered as binaural stereo.
