Currently, SoundFjord is endeavouring to collect and preserve for the great and the good a comprehensive archive of Sonic Art works and documentary evidence through photography, film, sound files, analogue and digital formats, writings, letters, emails and so forth. The archive is also serving as a document of the gallery’s past exhibitions.

The archive is known as the Contemporary Sound Art Archive (CSAA).

SoundFjord is constantly on the look out for new items to add to their collection. Should you have work you wish the gallery to consider please let SoundFjord know. We are happy to consider, photography, video, books, leaflets, letters, writings, tapes, CDs, DVDs, digital sound files and so forth.

The archive when suitably collected, stored, categorised and annotated will be available for viewing to artists, researchers and the interested general public at no cost. Unfortunately, items from the archive may not be removed; all items will be made available for reference purposes only.

Please contact the Curator should you wish to submit work to the archive: helen@soundfjord.org.uk
