MEDIATE (http://www.me-di-ate.net) Founded in 1998, ME'DI.ATE is a San Francisco-based art organization creating experiential art through products, exhibitions, and live events. ME'DI.ATE is the mastermind behind the acclaimed Soundwave, the most innovative sound/art/music festival in the Bay Area and beyond. Bringing together some of the most compelling sound purveyors from across the sonic spectrum, Soundwave produces experiential performances that challenge the way you see and hear sound and music.
SOUNDWAVE ((4)): GREEN SOUND (http://www.projectsoundwave.com) The fourth season of Soundwave, happening throughout Summer 2010, will be the most ambitious yet. Artists, composers and musicians will explore our sonic connections to the environment investigating the wonders of natural world, and examining environmental responsibility and sustainability through awe-inspiring performances and installations.
