Vol. 7 invites works under the theme "Background Noise". Today, public discourse is saturated by loud signals and well-funded narratives. Algorithms boost what already dominates. Platforms reward what conforms. The loud becomes the training data for what comes next. But what gets pushed down doesn't disappear. It persists as background noise. It is traditionally understood as interference, something that distracts attention and needs to be filtered out. We propose a different reading: background noise can hold what gets dismissed and amplify what cannot be heard. Technology can push these registers into perception, making sensible what otherwise stays beneath the threshold. Vektor Vol. 7 arrives at a moment when what was held in the background is moving into the foreground. We seek works that operate in this register: through the body, through encounter, through presence. You can submit your immersive work (VR, AR, XR, video game, installation, or any other format you consider relevant) by 15 July 2026.
