EuroNoize Live

EuroNoize was a project researching the relationship between art and DiY music scenes in Europe across several platforms. At the heart of the EuroNoize project was an alternative music showcase modeled on the Eurovision Song Context, in which musicians will be invited to consider the interplay of local and global identities in representing their country with a specially commissioned song and video. The live event in London was streamed online and broadcast at partner venues. Viewers were be able to vote digitally for the winning entry. This was accompanied by a conference at the University of Reading, exploring the histories connecting DiY music and the visual arts and investigating the challenges inherent in formalising the informal networks upon which this cultural activity is built. The music produced for this live event was released as a record and disseminated internationally alongside an exhibition at Kunsthall Oslo. The project’s explicit aim was to think of and implement strategies and modes of cooperation between art institutions, DiY musicians and internally between various bands across the continent to facilitate the continuation of these often short-lived practices. In doing so, the project investigated the way European co-operation transcends borders and raises questions about the meaning (and sound) of cultural identity in an age of transnational mobility.
