A pity the show will not travel. Guess I will have to travel to it.

How does it compare with the Sonambiente exhibition in Berlin of 1997? I
know this was a contemporary sound arts exhibition and made no atempt to be
historical, but it was huge, wide ranging and included many artists whose
earlier work is considered historically important now.

Bonjour,

Just to ad that there is a very nice expo called ECOUTE (LISTEN) going with
the main expo SONS and LUMIERES at Centre Pompidou at "La galerie des
enfants"at the ground floor (to your left)  with works of new media
artists.and also conferences on sound;  For anyone who reads French I made a
compte-rendu under the title ECOUTE in  "FOCUS" on NUMEDIA-EDU at
http://numedia.scola.ac-paris.fr/ that you can easily find with search.

For instance  new media and sound artists  http://www.sonicobject.com/  not
specifically history of sound but made by artists that have for some of them
a sound practice with roots in history of new media sound.
