Australia's premier sound-arts festival Liquid Architecture celebrates its ninth consecutive year with concerts, surround sound presentations, audio-visual and recorded work, exhibitions and installations. Featuring our most imaginative musicians, composers, sound designers and media artists in a sense-specific feast for the ears.
Liquid Architecture is a sense specific festival, as opposed to genre specific. The artistic content of the festival focuses upon and privileges sound practice that is difficult to categorise into existing music genres, or work that is of a genre where few high profile opportunities for exposure exist, such as electro acoustic or avant garde music.
Occurring annually since 2000, Liquid Architecture celebrates the diverse methods of sound making and sound theory. It is our belief that listening is a vital activity and one that is often overlooked within the dominance of visual media in our environment. A key objective is the promotion of artists practicing in the periphery of music and sound culture, particularly those with an experimental aesthetic and a critical approach to (media) cultures. Now coming into its seventh consecutive year, Liquid Architecture is the only festival in Australia that strives to combine the fragmented communities in which sound arts practices occurs, striving for cross disciplinary appreciation and critique. The practical objective of this strategy is to popularise and publicise sound culture and to make sound culture more accessible.

“ …it is clear that Liquid Architecture 6 is now a true celebration of the aural sense, with a fearless drive and ambition, aiming to shift expectations, challenge and develop audiences and to take the idea of a soundart festival to the next level …”

Hey Liquid architecture, are the tickets for the Sydney show being sold through The Factory venue? Because I checked out the website and I can't get any tickets anywhere. I really don't want to miss out! Cheers
