NIME 2024: coaching session with Sounds Like Touch

Sounds Like Touch is offering coaching sessions for performers in the NIME music tracks. This can help you to get some valuable feedback to improve your performance at the NIME conference.

Two formats are offered:

  • Online: in this format there will be a feedback session on Zoom together with up to two other acts, where you will get feedback both from invited professionals and the other performers based on the video that you have submitted. The videos will be watched beforehand.
  • Physical: in the days before the conference (on September 2nd or 3rd) you will meet in a rehearsal studio and play your performance (or a portion) and get feedback on that. This will also be done in a small group together with up to two other acts.
In the form linked below you can enter up to 1000 words to describe the work-in-progress, describe your motivation to join the conference, and upload up to three pictures, a thumbnail (see requirements below) and provide a link to audio-visual material (max 3 minutes; if the material is longer, we may not watch or listen to the full length).

For each format we offer (max) 3 sessions with (max) 3 performance acts. So in total there are 9 slots online and 9 slots physical. Given space, you may join both an online and physical session.

You can sign up through this form until July 15th.
