60x60 is a remote concert, film, and dance series creating an environment of
many different styles and approaches to contemporary music. With 60 pieces
each 60 seconds long from different composers the concert brings a variety
of sounds and creativity all put together in a one hour set. The Summit
performance will consist of the 2009 60x60 International Film Mix featuring
a wide range of new and experimental composers each one minuet long forming
a one hour program. Robert Voisey founded Vox Novus in 2000. This
organization was created for the purposes of expanding the presence of
contemporary music in the public's vision, empowering composers and
contemporary musicians to create, produce, and promote their music. Vox
Novus does this by the production of concerts, exposure on the Internet, and
facilitating networking between professionals. Vox Novus promotes and
produces contemporary music using repeatable methods and models that
composers can take and use on their own. This way contemporary music can
reach an ever wider audience thereby continuing the advancement of culture
and art.

Patrick Liddell recently received this Doctor of Music at Northwestern
University in Music Composition. His primary instructors have been Jay Alan
Yim (Northwestern University, Evanston IL), Chris Mercer (Northwestern),
Peter McIlwain (Monash University, Melbourne, Australia), and Steve
Heinemann (Bradley University, Peoria IL). His music has been performed by
Function Ensemble (London, UK), Monash Gamelan Ensemble (Melbourne), pLAy
Ensemble (Los Angeles, CA), Vox Novus (NYC, NY), Third Coast Percussion
Ensemble (Chicago, IL), and many other chamber and popular groups. His art
is a combination of music and video (video being the visual counterpart to
the temporality of sound), and in a postmodern idiom attempts to combine
popular, art, and world musics into a “unified disassociation”. His most
recent project, Arrow To The Sun, is a multi-dimensional fractal-art piece
that fuses music, video, taste, touch, smell, and thought to evoke an
anti-narrative of spiritual enlightenment.

a broad range of artists from across the US, Europe, Australia and Japan. It
features world premieres and exclusive debuts, raging free improvisers to
microtonal composition to experimental electronics to harsh noise,
reflecting an incredible range of genre busting exploration and sonic
creativity. The Summit promotes intermedia, fostering cross-pollination
between disciplines of music, sound art, visual and media arts. It is
