Relay: A Dialogue between Sound Artists
Commissioned by the Model Arts and Niland Gallery as part of model::offsite, Relay is an online music project devised and curated by musician John Lambert (aka Chequerboard). Lambert will invite a selection of irish and international sound artists and musicians to contribute to Relay over the duration of the project. He will record an initial sound work and then relay this piece to the first contributor. Each work will be published online as it is completed, and this page will map the path of this dialogue of ideas between artists.

An Open Call Reminder from NewTown

Results of Proposal Review Announced: February 15, 2009
Projected Date of Show: mid-June, 2009

Project Summary
----------------------------------------------------------
This open call is inspired by a fascination with music boxes,

The singing heart of dying flesh...
Let free the soul that is infinite energy.

The sweet suckle of now and then...
A piece transmits forever transformed.

The precious essences commingle in bliss...
A novel passage lay firm on two Dragons.

This trek poring over with emotion evolves...
The task is apparent, a riddle to solve.

Will Time be the narrator of grand stories lost...?
Or will it be Time that mends what it cost?

The jargon is confusing, though eliciting frames...
The picture is this...

We won't be the same.

A thread from my heart unravels with you, but connects us like energy with old matter and the new.

The depths of what created this Universe we breathe...
Is Love in its purest. In you I believe.

The expansion retracts, as all things must...
