CALL FOR AUDIO WORKS We are looking for homemade radio - radio play, documentary, sound art and everything in between, no longer than 20 minutes, gladly shorter. The selected pieces are broadcast and discussed in the monthly program Kurzstrecke. The author receives payment for each piece that is broadcast. Kurzstrecke is a joint project of the producers of Freispiel (experimental radio drama), Klangkunst (sound art), and Feature (documentary) on Deutschlandfunk Kultur, national public culture radio channel in Germany. We support radio dramas that seek new forms of narration, sound art pieces that give noises a voice, and artistic documentaries that bring multi-faceted stories to the radio. All this is being produced in the "classic" one-hour format, but also in shorter forms that are nimble enough to break fresh ground and leave stylistic boundaries behind. We will present such audio miniatures every last Thursday of the month at 22:03 h CET (including one re-run a few days later and a seven day catch-up). Information on submission guidelines We are calling for innovative, timely, radiophonic audio pieces. We will select the most interesting submissions and present them on our monthly late show Kurzstrecke. Information for Applicants Pieces no longer than 20 minutes Preferably pieces not yet broadcast on German public radio Pieces not previously released on CD Pieces made available for download as wav files (no aiff or mp3) or on CD Upload relevant information on the piece and the artists as pdf or txt file Selected pieces will be bought for two broadcasts – all rights remain with the authors Pieces in languages other than German should be intelligible for German listeners without translation Please send your submissions to Direct link to the upload portal https://kurzstrecke.deutschlandradio.de/login Julia Gabel, Johann Mittmann / Freispiel [email protected] Marcus Gammel / Klangkunst [email protected] Ingo Kottkamp / Feature [email protected] Deutschlandfunk Kultur Abt.
