NOISEfestival.com's photostream

NOISE is not your typical arts festival. It has no physical location rather the central hub of activity takes place on the NOISE website making it the first 'virtual' festival of its kind in Europe!

Since our launch in February NOISEfestival.com has received over 4,000 young people from every postcode in the UK have submitted original creative works across a range of disciplines such as music, fashion, film, design, fine art, photography and the written word.

Many submissions have since received media coverage in print in top titles such as Vogue, Elle Decoration, Creative Review, and The Big ssue and broadcast media such as BBC2, Channel M and Radio 1Xtra.

A panel of acclaimed industry professionals support NOISEfestival.com through their curator roles including;Top UK entrepreneur Wayne Hemingway for 3D Design; design legend Peter Saville for design; Saatchi artist Stella Vine for fine art; Paul Insect for Illustration; Mark Eley of UK fashion label Eley Kishimoto for fashion; XFM DJ and Music Curator at London's ICA Nick Luscombe,plus Radio1Xtra DJ Ras Kwame and Tony Tagoe of Real Deal Records.

This support across the nation’s media demonstrates a national recognition amongst the media community that there is a lack of creative forums for young people in the UK. It also underlines commitment from media partners to produce platforms that will highlight and promote genuine creative talent. NOISE is no X-Factor. This is about raw talent and giving it the opportunity to flourish and grow.
