to get up to date annoucements for the 60x60 project.

60x60 is a project containing 60 compositions from 60 different composers, each composition 60 seconds or less in duration. These 60 second works are performed in synchronization with an analog clock.

Representing an aesthetic and geographic diversity of composers, the 60x60 is an annual electronic music project for concert and CD containing 60 works by 60 different composers where each piece is 60 seconds or less in duration. Since its inception in 2003, the 60x60 has promoted the music of hundreds of emerging and established composers, setting an unprecedented example among contemporary music organizations of its scale and larger. It has received approximately 100 performances worldwide and has produced three compact discs; and has collaborated with multimedia including choreography, video, and sculpture.

In conjunction with the ideals of Vox Novus, the mission of the 60x60 project is to promote new music. The project is specifically designed to include a large number of composers and present their music to audiences around. The project has taken a "grass-roots" philosophy with much of its success due to its collaborators, hosts, and director who are composers themselves.
