      Memory’s death… or the desire of immortality

The Latin American Electroacoustic Music Collection can show the impact that the archival of electronic artworks can play in giving another perspective on history. More information here.

      Écosystème(s) : a self-interactive sound installation

      Écosysteme(s) is a self-interactive sound installation whose behavior and sound identity are inspired by the communication techniques of orthopteran insects. The term “self-interactive” is used here to emphasize that the device is self-regulating (the device listens to the sound it produces and adapts its behavior according to the result).
