Initiated in 2007, the sound:frame festival has been staged annually in Vienna, Austria. The festival activities focus on the link between auditive and visual media in the context of art and culture (interdisciplinarity).[2] The name sound:frame stands for the combination and the equal importance of music (sound = the smallest component of music) and moving image (frame = single film frame).[3]
The festival consists of formats such as exhibitions, audiovisual live performances and concerts, and takes place in nightclubs and public space, galleries and art museums. Theoretical features such as workshops, panel discussions and the production of an annual exhibition catalogue are also part of the festival programming.
Each year the festival counts between 8,000 and 13,000 visitors.
