Arts sonores et transduction des genres III<\/strong><\/em> presents two distinct sound explorations: an evening dedicated to modular synthesis curated by \u00c9ric Mattson<\/strong> (Radio Bloc Oral<\/a>), and a three-day sonic journey across Montreal organized by \u00c9ric L\u00e9tourneau<\/strong> (Musiques cach\u00e9es<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Corvette Performance Machine<\/strong> (CPM), designed by Nina Isabelle as a mobile laboratory, transforms a 1984 Corvette into a sound instrument. Six artists will navigate Montreal’s urban space in this vehicle equipped with a modular synthesizer, transforming mechanical and environmental sounds into spontaneous sonic explorations. The project will conclude with a roundtable at Hexagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evening, titled \u2500\u25b7\u25cb\u2500<\/strong> ,explores the intersection between electronic audio synthesis and material processes. It begins with a roundtable featuring nine artists offering discussions and micro-concerts, followed by performances including “Orphans and Voids,” an exploration of ritual and material transformations through light, smoke, and electromagnetic emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event from the Musiques cach\u00e9es : \u00e9couter la diversit\u00e9 sonore<\/a>, supported by the Groupe de recherche en m\u00e9diatisation du son (GRMS), is part of the OFF program of the SIGHT+SOUND festival<\/strong><\/a>, whose main program will take place from March 27 to 29.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Corvette Performance Machine (CPM)<\/strong><\/font><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Corvette Performance Machine<\/em> (CPM)<\/strong> takes a first-generation\/fourth model 1984 convertible Corvette with manual transmission and transforms it into an artistic performance machine that invites an improvisational sound artist to create a documented ride. The improvisational sound artist responds to the sounds of the engine, the road, and the mechanics, as well as the driver and environmental elements, including the wind in relation to speed, aspects of the physical landscape, and the emotions they inspire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The performance structure aims to highlight human decision-making processes specific to creative impulse. It creates a scenario allowing improvisation practitioners to respond by engaging in a shared listening experience with the machine and the environment, and is designed to emphasize creative impulse in a real context, outside the technically controllable variables of sound studios and other listening installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
