CALL FOR ACOUSTIC.SPACE TEXTS 

ACOUSTIC.SPACE is an exploration into the acoustic dimension of electronic 
technology and networked media environment, featuring a series of magazines 
(1998-2000), Xchange - streaming audio network and mailinglist (since 
1997), the Acoustic.Space.Lab research programme (since 2001) and now an 
upcoming book will be the closing publication of this period. 

This book --"Acoustic.Space.Reader"-- will contain research texts and
articles 
on the experiments, activities and tactical interventions of artists, media 
activists and 'cultural scientists', who use audio communication tools to 
build new contexts and open spaces by pushing the boundaries of 
electro-acoustic environments, acoustic cyberspace, radio ether and 
emerging cell-space. 

The book will include also a DVD - a multi-media resarch of VIRAC 
radiotelescope in Latvia: from history of this top-secret Soviet era 
military object, including precise technical data, about it's conversion to 
scinitific and civilian use, and to the international "Acoustic.Space.Lab" 
symposium on sound art, radio and satellite technology, which took place in 
August 2001, with participation of more then 30 artists, radio amateurs and 
community radio activists from all over the world.
