THOMAS TILLY — (Fr) / Field recordings / Electronics
Codex amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive breeding phenomenon)
Fr : Codex amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive breeding
phenomenon) est une série de compositions issues d’une étude de terrain
menée en 2016 avec Antoine Fouquet (herpétologue, chargé de recherche
au CNRS) en Guyane. Explorant le frottement entre la phonographie et
l’électronique, l’approche scientifique et artistique, Codex amphibia
explore le phénomène méconu des reproductions explosives, brefs
rassemblements de plusieurs centaines de milliers de grenouilles
occasionnant des murs de sons d’environ 100 décibels.
Production : CEBA (centre d'étude pour la biodiversité amazonienne), Le
Lieu Multiple, Jazz à Poitiers, Césaré, SCAM, Studio d’en Haut.
Le Field recording / Thomas Tilly : Il ne s’agit pas que de capter le
son, mais de placer le microphone au même rang que l’instrument de
musique et d’envisager la situation de cet instrument dans l’espace
comme une méthode de composition, il s’agit de détourner son rôle
d’outil de communication pour appréhender l’onde sonore autrement.
S’attaquer à un immatériel croisant tout ce qui constitue et
conditionne le matériel, s’attacher à parler et user du bruit comme
quelque chose de précieux et unique, et confronter ce bruit à ce que
l’on appelle musique.

Eng : Musician whose principle instrument is a microphone. For twelve
years he has been composing, inventing sound art installations and
teaching. His work has been presented in more than 15 countries. Tilly
finds inspiration in different environmental analysis protocols and how
they have impact on the notion of listening.
Codex amphibia / (an interpretation of the explosive breeding
phenomenon) : This project comes from a research field session realized
with Antoine Fouquet, Research associate at The French National Center
for Scientific Research (CNRS) « Ecology, environment and interactions
in Amazonian systems Lab » (LEEISA) and the « Evolution and Biological
diversity Lab », Codex Amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive
breeding phenomenon) is supported by le lieu Multiple, Jazz à Poitiers,
Centre national de création musical Césaré, CNRS Guyane, and Labex CEBA
(Center for the study of biodiversity in Amazonia),

On Codex Amphibia, Thomas Tilly lets the field recordings take the
reins. Collected in Guiana in late 2016 as part of a field research
project with the French National Center for Scientific Research, the
mostly unprocessed selections paint vivid pictures of a lush natural
environment. Leaves rustle, water bubbles, and the ribbits of the
titular amphibians are just a few of the sonic elements that comprise
the organically dense collages, and the masterful production ensures
that everything is heard clearly. The digital version comes with a few
photos that I assume were taken during the recording process, and it’s
a testament to the album’s clarity that they’re almost exactly like
what I was picturing in my mind while I was listening. It’s one of the
most intensely immersive albums I’ve ever heard, with Tilly’s subtle
additions in the form of sine waves and quiet drones keep anything from
seeming too stagnant. Codex Amphibia is a truly awe-inspiring work, one
that I’m sure will reveal more layers as time goes on.

TARAB — (Aus) / Field recordings | Musique concrète
Tarab (Eamon Sprod, (TARAB) explores re-contextualised collected sounds
and tactile gestures formed into dynamic, psycho-geographical
compositions inspired by discarded things, found things, crawling
around in the dirt, junk, the ground, rocks, dust, wind, walking
aimlessly, scratchy things, decay and most if not all the things he
hears and sees. More than simply documenting a given site, TARAB is
interested in a direct engagement with our surrounds, teasing out half
narratives, visceral sensation, false leads and heightened awareness.
Recent works have consisted of multi-channel, site responsive
performances and installations for speakers, transducers, found sounds,
found things, microphones and elements of the performance/installation
space itself.
TARAB's compositional works have been published on labels including
Naturestrip (AU), nonlinear (AU), 23five (US), Unfathomless (BE),
Aposiopese (FR), Swarming (FR), Cronica (PT), Semperflorens (RU) and
also his own sonicrubbish imprint formed in 2018.

YVAN ETIENNE — (Fr) / Psychoacoustic
/ Field recordings
Eng : French
artist/activist Yvan Etienne, is engaged in research in the field of
sound art. (specific site installations, concerts,). As a musician, he
composes and plays pieces using electronic, phonography, analog
synthesizers and the hurdy-gurdy. His sound art research questions the
perception and physicality of sound spaces.
He has also played with Phill Niblock, Yann Gourdon, Richard Glover,
Brice Jeannin, Patrice Grente, Robert Poss, Paul Panhuysen, Marie
Verry...
Lives and works in Mulhouse, Fr.
Fr : Yvan Etienne développe un travail qui prend des formes de “choses“
sonores, d’installations, de performances/concerts, de vidéos et
d’éditions. Conçus comme des espaces, des moments à expérimenter, ses
pièces sont généralement liées à des contextes, des climats induis par
les spécificités des sites et/ou des supports investis. Réalisés avec
des instruments acoustiques, électroniques et phonographique, ses
assemblages sondent divers aspects de nos perceptions.
