Musikfonds: Outer Ear
Outer Ear focuses on projects that explore new ways of engaging and involving audiences. The aim is to specifically support participatory projects that put the creation process of a work—not the finished piece—at the centre. Experimentation, openness, the unfinished, and shared experiences are deliberately made visible and audible to create new ways into contemporary music and enable participation as well as temporary communities.
