Noisevember 2026 starts today on Airwiggles: Everyone’s favourite challenge for composers and sound designers to create some audio based on a daily prompt – for the entirety of November!
Here are your prompts:
What is Noisevember?
Noisevember is the audio equivalent of “Inktober”: a challenge to create something new each day for a month, all about practice, building habits, learning, and community! We want you to interpret each prompt any way you want and spend as much or as little time on it as you desire. There is no pressure and no restrictions: simply have fun joining fellow audio artists for a month full of learning and experimentation!
How do I participate?
Head over to airwiggles.com/noisevember, where we will post daily threads for each prompt and ask you to share your audio creation in the comments! You are free to interpret the prompt in any way and create anything you like: music, sound design, programs, synth patches, interactive audio experiences… whatever floats your boat! Just pop your finished creation as an .mp3, .mp4, or YouTube video link in the comments of each daily thread (and feel free to share them anywhere else with the hashtag #noisevember26!
