From the everyday sounds that encapsulate the events of the past twelve months to the year’s most innovative and creative sound technology, the Sound of the Year Awards celebrates sound in all its forms and from all corners of the world, and is judged by a panel of leading lights from the international sound community.

The ‘Best Imagined Sound’, in partnership with the Southbank Centre’s National Poetry Library, is looking for submissions that describe or depict sounds. These could be poetic, pictorial, or conceptual and should encourage an engagement with the imagination.

The winner will receive a basicUcho high-quality omni-directional microphone, courtesy of LOM, a minimalistic mount made by Radius and a Bubblebee Industries windkiller.
