| Call for Visual Music Works - MuVi7 |
CALL FOR KINETIC WORKS
MuVi7 invites artists, musicians, designers and performers, as well as professors and university
students, to submit proposals of videos to be part of a public exhibition, featuring performances
and discussions.
Visual Music exhibition is part of the VIII International Congress "Synaesthesia: Science & Art",
which will take place from the 23th to the 25th of October 2025 at Convento La Trinidad,
Palacio Abacial and Teatro Martínez Montañés, Alcalá la Real, Jaén, Spain.
Deadline for submissions
The deadline for submissions is 30May 2025
Topic - Visual Music
The topic of the exhibition is visual music and synaesthesia. By “visual music”, we refer to any representation, whether purely visual or audiovisual, inspired by music. The correspondences between the visual and musical elements may result from synesthetic perceptions (where the visuals are mental images evoked by music); or from studies exploring analogies between visual and musical languages (rhythms, tonality, texture, colours, etc.). A narrative thread is not required.
Who can participate?
The call is open to three categories of participants:
Participant A: professionals (artists, musicians, designers and performers)
Participant B: university professors.
Participant C: university students or recent graduated (within the last 24 months).
What can you submit?
Any form of moving image (video, animations, etc.) – only visual kinetic work, audiovisual,
or interactive – is eligible for submission.
University professors can submit collections of didactic works.
Students may submit one or more works created as part of a university course.
The submitted works must be unpublished and free of copyright restrictions.
