PROMENADE POUR SEPT, SEPT MINUTES
multimedia installation2016
In this environment, soundscapes, texts and objects interact and guide the audience’s orientation in space.
I composed a seven-minute multiphonic electroacoustic piece, using voices and field recordings. The seven voices, which come from the seven suspended loudspeakers, recount seven walks that I took and transcribed in writing. While these voices describe landscapes, talk about orientation and tell stories, different sound events fill the space.
Seven books punctuate the space. They give directions, offer points of view and listening. One can read diversed and varied sound sensations, from listening to one’s own breath to the granular sound of the rain. Each one has its own shape, depending on what it gives to hear. These are hybrid writings between maps, scores and fictions.
The public is invited to experience a seven-minute sound/spatial/visual walk.
