The Canadian New Music Network is excited to call for Participatory Creative Music Projects to be hosted on the online Participatory Creative Music Hub. Successful applicants will be provided funding for documentation of an existing project.
Amount of grant: $600.00 Application deadline: January 25, 2021 Deadline for project submission for successful applicants: March 8, 2021
The Hub showcases people from all walks of life creating music together. Whatever you call it – participatory creative music, community music, jamming, co-composition, improvisation, music exploration, listening games or having fun with sound – The Hub celebrates music creativity for everyone. The main criteria for projects is that all participants have active input in the creative process, whether they are 4, 40 or 94 years of age, an experienced musician or making music for the first time. Projects must take COVID-19 measures into account, and projects in remote and isolated areas are very encouraged.
What is an eligible project?
An eligible project is a participatory creative music activity already occurring in the community, whether on-going or completed. Projects may take place in the fields of health care, education, social services, correctional institutions and more.
See the Project page for examples of Hub projects.
The purpose of this grant is to support documentation of an existing PCM project to provide inspiration and tools for user groups of the Hub to make their own music. It is crucial that documentation is instructional in nature, rather than promotional. Links to biographical information via a CNMN member page and external links are possible on the project webpage.
Participatory music takes place in all kinds of settings with all kinds of people. Documentation can reflect this, and doesn’t have to be of studio-quality audio or video where that is not possible or appropriate. Sometimes a video capture from your cell phone or screen capture from zoom speaks volumes. Documentation should best reflect the nature of the project, communicate well on an on-line platform and assume varying levels of music training.
Possible formats include:
Text: max 500 words. Exceptions made when use of participant images are an issue
Scores and representations of all kinds are welcome and encouraged (text, graphic, video, western notation etc.)
Images of process (JPG,PNG or GIF. Ideal size: 1280 pixels wide)
Audio: links to SoundCloud are preferable. If this is not possible, the maximum size for uploading audio files is 10MB, or roughly 5–10 minutes of audio. For longer clips, please upload an excerpt.
Video: YouTube or Vimeo link
Optional: submission of video for upload to the CNMN YouTube channel
Max 3 minutes in length. If more time is needed, we recommend making multiple shorter videos rather than one long one
Permissions
Depending on the nature of the project, participants may be featured in image, audio and video files. Successful applicants are responsible for procuring, respecting and documenting permissions from participants for regular and digital usages of documentation related to the pilot project. Media release forms to this end will be provided by the CNMN, and are considered part of the deliverables.

Étape 1
Lorem Ipsum est tout simplement un texte factice de l'industrie de l'impression et de la composition. Lorem Ipsum est le texte factice standard de l'industrie depuis les années 1500, quand un imprimeur inconnu a pris une cuisine de type et l'a brouillé pour faire un livre de spécimen de type. Il a survécu non seulement à cinq siècles, mais aussi au saut dans la composition électronique, demeurant essentiellement inchangé.
