Project>Soundwave is a multi-venue and multi-date festival happening over the span of two months every two years in San Francisco USA. Each season investigates a new idea in sound and invites diverse multidisciplinary artists and musicians to explore the season's theme in new and innovative directions. Its mission is to explore the creation of sound; attempt to understand and shape the aural landscapes in everyday life; and find innovative ways to engage the listener using sound as language, music, environment or a vehicle for human connection and interaction
The AudioBus is a moving venue, giving audiences an adventurous sonic experience like never before. The sound artists and musicians curated for the AudioBus compose their San Francisco route and perform live scores to the scenery moving past them. An Audiobus system map will be created for passengers with leading art institutions the de Young Museum, New Langton Arts, Art Engine and Queens Nails Annex serving as bus station gathering places to check-in, wait, nibble, drink, buy merchandise and take in their latest exhibitions.
