Noise!

Each year the Ontological-Hysteric Theater Incubator hosts a Noise! festival, a three-night multi-arts event designed to promote interest in new forms of sound art. Now in its third year, the festival features short compositions and performances by over 20 established and emerging artists. This year artists of free103point9 curate.
Each evening opens with a Radio 4×4 as audiences enter. Radio 4×4 is a collaborative radio transmission performance. Four simultaneous audio performances are separately sent through FM transmitters to radios positioned throughout a performance space. Each radio receives only one of the signals, so that the audience becomes an active collaborator in the performance, “mixing” the audio feeds by moving about the space among the four signals.
