The AUDIOSURGE Project -   an online, music-inspired literary exhibit

.....................................................................................................................................

Some people will consume music for the same reasons they will eat fast food:
The music they tolerate, like fast food, is cheap, readily available, and provides instant (though short-term) gratification.

You're not one of those people.

Music is very important to you, is a salient part of your life or lifestyle, though people don't always understand why. You are constantly expanding your music collection, or reading Pitchfork Media, or going to shows. You are not alone.

Join others from around the world who are submitting creative writing (fiction or literary non-fiction) inspired by contemporary music.  This project is about the aggregation of original stories, essays, poetry, etc. - not music reviews. You do not have to be a "professional" writer to partake.

Your submission, however, should be insightful or instructive, beautiful or disturbing, elegant or energetic. Your writing may illustrate anything: whether deeply intimate, personal or detached; whether discrete or broad in scope or ambition.

Submissions have related to politics, moods, love, life, dogs, religion, weather, philosophy, hurt, epistemology, computer science, ethics and the general strangeness of the human condition.

It's your call- as long as you can call upon that essence of music which makes it so intensely important to you.  Select submissions will be published on this web site for the entire world to see.

When you submit your writing, you can receive attribution or remain anonymous.
Either way, your work may be published on this web site, and we may be able to make a few more people understand why good music does matter. If nothing else, we may succeed in creating a relevant, worth-while, dynamic exhibit of art.
