ShriDurga Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 MUSIC DESIGN CALL FOR OBJECTS SHARE YOUR LOVE OF DESIGN AND MUSIC FROM 1950 TO 2010 WITH SMOCAThink back to the time you first fell in love with music. How did you play your first album? What instruments have you used to make music? Has that changed over the years? Would you like to lend to a museum exhibition and help us explore these questions?The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art invites Valley residents to bring their boomboxes, record players, turntables, walkmans, guitars, synthesizers and related paraphernalia to the Museum to be considered for inclusion in the exhibition, Rewind Remix Replay: Design, Music and Everyday Experience. All objects will be reviewed by SMoCA staff and Prasad Boradkar, Associate Professor, Industrial Design at Arizona State University and guest curator of the exhibition. The exhibition will be on view at SMoCA from December 19, 2009 to May 23, 2010.The Museum is particularly interested in portable listening devices, playback machines, musical instruments and related advertisements and related attachments from the 1950s to 2010. If you have unique objects (like record players designed for cars, flashy boomboxes that light up, or other unusual products), we would love to see them. People should not bring clothing and all items must be in excellent condition to be considered. If your item is too large to easily transport to the Museum, please bring a photograph instead. The Museum will not offer appraisals of any items.Each person who brings one or more items (or photographs of items) will receive free admission to SMoCA on August 8th as well as two free passes to come back and see the exhibition Rewind Remix Replay: Design, Music and Everyday Experience.For questions related to the object search or the exhibition, contact: Claire C. Carter, curatorial coordinator, at 480-874-4630 or clairec@sccarts.org http://www.smoca.org/Music_Design_Call.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
