Free Island Records talent search gig tomorrow at South Birmingham College

Posted: 09 Nov 2011 02:55 AM PST

Regional Showcase selection by South Birmingham College

I've received an email about a free Island Records talent search gig tomorrow (Thursday 10 November) at 7:30pm in The Crossing at South Birmingham College, Digbeth High Street.

Island Records are searching for talented musicians from across the UK. They are holding a regional showcase in Birmingham where eight acts will perform to get through to the final stages to win a record deal.

Four Birmingham acts are through to this stage, including two acts from South Birmingham College; Contemporary Urban group So'real and singer songwriter Adele Hunkins-Beckford. All the acts will be playing two of their best tracks in the hope of getting through to the final round.

Come and support Birmingham's acts….

There will be no judging panel and scoring. It will just be good musicians playing their hearts out to impress Island record people hiding out in the crowd.

Listen to South Birmingham College's acts songs in the playbox above (some of which include naughty words).

Radio: Station Sound Producer, Kerrang! Radio

Posted: 08 Nov 2011 09:14 AM PST

Do you like whooshes and bangs? Are you funny? Creative? Good with knobs and buttons? Capable of working with the occasional office weirdo?

Kerrang! Radio is looking for an experienced producer to generate exceptionally creative, innovative and targeted station sound.

Working with our passionate and dedicated team in Birmingham, you'll have knowledge of rock music in all its many forms and a desire to push the boundaries without pushing Ofcom's panic button.

You'll be proactive, reliable, flexible and well-organised and you will create, deliver and manage on-air production in line with our brand values, whilst producing high quality commercials for clients and national S&P trailers and liners.

We need you to be a Dalet user and an expert in Pro-Tools. In return we'll give you a studio and access to a wide range of exotic tea bags.

Kerrang! Radio is a jewel in the Bauer Radio Passion Portfolio, broadcasting to almost 1.4 million listeners (RAJAR Q3/11) each week. We pride ourselves on being forward thinking and totally unique in the marketplace and want our station sound to reflect our honest, tongue-in-cheek attitude. We need our imaging to sell the merits of the brand without patronising an extremely media/music savvy audience.

To apply please see this job entry on Media UK.

Scholarships in International Low-residency MFA

Posted: 08 Nov 2011 11:58 PM PST

TRANSART INSTITUTE seeks independent, inquisitive and imaginative artists for its low-residency MFA program. In a uniquely international setting, Transart offers an accredited two year course for working artists, teachers and all professionals in related fields who are seeking advancement in visual arts and new media. The program consists of three intensive summer residencies in Europe filled with lectures, workshops, critiques, seminars, performances and exhibitions and two shorter winter residencies in New York City. In the four semesters between residencies, students create an individual course of study realizing art and research projects with the support of faculty and self-chosen advisors wherever they work and live. A detailed program description is online.
SCHOLARSHIPS of up to 25% (50% for residents and citizens of developing countriesup ) are available and will be awarded with acceptance into the program at the early application deadline. 
THE MFA PROGRAM is geared towards the development of a sustainable artistic praxis rather than training in certain media or genres, challenging students to think conceptually and work creatively in new ways. Current students work with animation, choreography, curating, digital media, drawing, film, graphic design, installation, intervention, music, painting, performance, photography, sculpture, software, sound, text art, video and writing.
TRANSART FACULTY comes from a wide range of academic and artistic backgrounds as well as geographic locations. Current theoretical areas of expertise include curatorial work, cyberfeminism, African diaspora, interface technologies, digital arts, continental philosophy, media, social studies in colonialism, capitalism and tourism, word and image relationships, and contemporary asian art history. Studio faculty include international artists working with sound, performance, dance and choreography, photography, drawing, sculpture, film and video, intervention and installation art. Details online.
TRANSART STUDENTS are emerging and mid-career artists and educators at tertiary institutions. Transart Institute's residencies are a meeting place for cultural exchange. Transart students and alumni will converge for the summer residency from areas as diverse as Italy, Egypt, Pakistan, Iceland, Croatia, Ethiopia, Canada, Costa Rica, the UK and the US. For many students the time at Transart is a transformational experience. New York based artist Virgil Wong found "The community I've become a part of through Transart is already much more immersive than what I've developed in ten years of living and working as an artist in New York City". Photographer and performer Angelika Rinnhofer found that "to work independently can pose a challenge but it also offers freedom and flexibility. Since a large number of students are accomplished artists and earn a living, Transart's concept is ideal to work toward a degree and to expand one's artistic career in addition to having a job." For composer and artist David Dunn "perhaps the most important aspect of the program, to me personally, has been the realization of just how constrained my professional life can be. I have no lack of colleagues or opportunities to present my work but my network of association tends to reinforce a particular set of intellectual and aesthetic assumptions that become 'the' set of assumptions. Transart succeeds at prying apart some of those entrenched viewpoints to provide space for new ideas and concerns. The truly international makeup of the students and faculty reinforces this." More details online.
EARLY APPLICATION DEADLINE is December 1st, 2011. Applications can be submitted online.
FOR MORE INFORMATION please contact program leader Klaus Knoll: knoll@transart.org
PHONE: +1 (347) 410-9905
