Trevor Wishart's classic suggestion "Sonic Art" can be considered as a slightly more poetic equivalent of "Sound Art".

I don't think they're definitions so much as categories?

Glad it's your job and not mine. :>)
I guess I would consider "Sound Art", if someone had a gun to my head.

Hi All,
There's a local online magazine in Edmonton called "Sound and Noise" (thesoundandnoise.com). They're looking to add a section for contemporary art music, and have asked me to be the editor. This section would cover basically any creative activities that modern composers and sound artists engage in (concert works, ea music, installations, improvisation, etc.)
The first thing that we've been asked to do is to come up with a name for the (genre?). I realize that trying to label what we do is problematic, but we need to link off the main page, so we have to call it something.
I've been struggling with this for a few days. Above I've called it contemporary art music, but I'm not sure if that's the best term or even a good term.
thoughts?
