The third edition of Audiospace featured the work of Montreal composer Chantal Dumas, who was commissioned by Open Space New Music to write a  Call for Submissions and to create a sound piece for the Audiospace web gallery.

The Call for Submissions was sent electronically to audio, media and art lists and was active from April to June 15, 2007. Seventeen audio submissions were received and included an eclectic array of electronic, recorded acoustic and mixed works from solo artists, duos and ensembles, one of which was performed by an Avatar Orchestra by way of the Second Life virtual reality site.

The Audiospace 2007 gallery was open for pubic listening, viewing and input until November 19, 2007.  Visitors to the site were invited to make comments through the Comment function embedded in each artist's submission page, and to interact by clicking on the Interact page to vote on five questions.  Visitor input determined the financial remuneration available to the artists who have submitted works.
