Tryptique

Part 1. Echo of oneself (14’).

Music designed in itinerancy, alternating sound paths and percussive stops. Evocation of the withdrawal into oneself, as an experience of burial, as a plunge into oneself. The unfolding of this itinerary refers to the couple «fold, unfold» as Gilles Deleuze defines it in his book «Pli».

Part 2. The Full, The Void (13’).

This central part is immobile, it develops on the very place where «Echo of oneself» fades away. Gherasim Luca’s texts are taken from The End of the World and Other Secrets of the Void and the Full. On electronic support, then live, they gradually emerge.

Part 3. Transparency (17’).

The architecture is composed of a virtual wall of sounds and lights, animated by the interpreter’s gesture. It is a vision and listening to the improbable, blurred lines and contours, a poetic of the disorder. The electronic music played live reuse some of the sound materials from the first part. Transparency immerses us in a process of slowness.

The staging

The staging seeks to “corporalize” the sound design composed mainly by James Giroudon, and to make visible the interpreter’s inner and physical evolutions. The “origami” conceptual structure interacts with video, light and body. It delocalizes the raw material of this body-audio-spatial assemblage, allowing spectators to enter a new visual and sensitive experience.
