Moles Not Molar is seeking your submissions!!!

For the months of December and January, as part of the exhibit RADIO, Nexus Gallery in the Crane Arts Building will be broadcasting a continuous AM station and Moles will be partnering with them for an afternoon program of radio plays, poems, sound art, speeches, operas,songs, and more.

And we want you to create them!!

We're especially interested in pieces that are thoughtful about orparticularly suited for the medium of radio.

Transmissions: Signal to Noise Ratio will take place on the afternoon of Sunday, January 18th and will include both live and pre-recorded materials.

Some ways that we have been thinking about the concept of transmission include:

- the use of sources in literary production

- the artist as transmitter (communicating materials that arrive from an "outside")

- the mechanics & processes of dissemination

- modes of communication, etc.

- acts of interruption or corruption that interfere with existing signals

- explorations of intentional transmission vs. background noise**

**The Signal to Noise Ratio is a concept that has been used to investigate the experience of multi-source sonic stimuli. The formula originated in electrical engineering but has since been extended to numerous other fields and is officially defined as the ratio of a signal power to the power "corrupting" the signal or serving as its unintended interruptor. The SNR can also be articulated as the ratio of the desired transmission to the level of background noise. It attempts to explore issues of both sonic power and domination, as well as the complicating and even transformitory possibilities of chance contributors.

THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO TUESDAY, DECEMBER 30TH.
