Oramix Contest winners announced!
A few months ago, we told you about a competition The Science Museum in London was running, as part of their celebration of sound designer Daphne Oram, and the opening of their exhibit Oramics to Electronica.
They invited musicians to take sounds from Oram’s archives, and create a new piece of music with them, judged by a panel consisting of Brian Eno, The Wire magazine and more.
The winners have just been revealed, with Chris Weeks’ ‘Telescopic Moon’ being awarded first place. His entry is embedded above. Congratulations Chris!
Listen to the panel’s other top picks over at The Science Museum’s site.
