call details for Mapping Festival 2027: Call for Projects

Direct SoundSol fit: experimental image, sound and technology-led projects for an audiovisual and transdisciplinary arts festival.

Checked 25 October 2026. The official 2027 call metadata lists 14 October–14 November 2026, but its text still says “OPEN CALL IS NOW OVER” and refers to the 2026 edition and a 2025 deadline. The public call page currently returns an error. Kept as a watch/reference item until the organizer resolves this conflict, not a verified current call. Artist entry is available for account creation and project submission; confirm 2027 eligibility, categories, funding and closing time with the organizer before applying. No funding amount or geographical eligibility restriction has been verified. Metadata source: https://back.mappingfestival.com/api/appel-projets/6?fields[0]=nom&fields[1]=date_debut&fields[2]=date_fin&fields[3]=texte_en . No new image attached: the official cover is a 2026 text poster, not a verified rights-cleared 2027 artwork.
