An experienced Sound Artist is required by Accentuate to work on a new outdoor commission for the Paralympic Torch Relay Event on 28th August 2012. Accentuate is the London 2012 Legacy Programme for the South East based with Screen South.
Taking inspiration from the spirit and vision of Paralympic Athletes and celebrating Stoke Mandeville as the birth place of the Paralympic Games, Starting Line builds a dynamic universal performance collaboration between disabled and non disabled young people from around the globe, including spinally injured young people from Stoke Mandeville Hospital. The work is being created by a team of artistic collaborators and the resulting performance, which includes dance, live art and film, will be performed by a group of emerging young British dancers.
The majority of the work will take place during a 2-week creation period from 1st-4thAugust and from 20thAugust through until the performance. However, the Sound Artist will need to be available to start working with Artistic director immediately. Though the appointed sound artist will not need to be present on all days during the creation period, they will need to be available for meetings and a site visit at other times.
The fee for this work will be up to £2,500 (Based on up to 10 days work at £250/day).This fee is inclusive of travel. Some days will need to be spent in London, or in Aylesbury
