The audio network is back! After the hostile take-over by the internet, the ultimate audio network of the 20th century, the phone system, has eventually re-established itself to deliver what it was originally conceived for: audio content.
This time, the digital formats within which audio content is delivered online leaves acres of creative space for artists and media collectives to manoeuvre . Layered on top of the original copper network, online digital audio provides a multitude of options and potential, unheard of even five years ago.
'One Bit Louder' showcases a number of creative approaches towards audio on the internet. It goes beyond the mere sound spectrum and probes various interfaces developed to make audio environments accessible - after all, there's a screen in your sound file! Networking initiatives unique to the internet radio community will also be explored, as well as providing a comprehensive online guide to the technical possibilities of digital sound online. The underlying message is this. Do It Yourself, and try to be that one bit louder!
