  1. ECHO, interactive performance / sound installation, 8 avril 2009

    Walking performance : Montparnasse-Bienvenüe tube station, Paris, France, 1.30.00 / Stereo sound broadcast : IFI building, Paris-Est University, Noisy-le-Grand, France, 1.30.00. Equipment : GSM spy-micro + Samsung F480Player mobile + ampli/speakers.

  3. ECHO is an interactive performance and a sound installation which simultaneously work for an hour and a half in two places thirty kilometers away. The performance is a continuous walking of my body with a spy micro in the corridors of the Montparnasse-Bienvenüe tube Station in Paris. In a stairwell on the third floor of the IFI building of the Paris-Est University in Noisy-le-Grand, the installation transmits the sound of my moving body in the tube station, in real time via the GSM network. It comprises a mobile phone which is connected to the spy micro (in Paris) and to a pair of speakers on site. These speakers are aligned from top to bottom on a part of the metal structure of the stairwell and form an invisible line of sound. In a relationship between the physical presence of the body and its absence and in this remote connection of spaces, the issue of ECHO is the creation of a co-presence of my body via a technological network and its sound perception. Its intensity is fluctuating as soon as it depends on my movement rhythm which varies and on the tube station architecture which is a source of different resonance effects.

  5. ECHO - Part I, interactive performance

    « With a spy micro on my body, I walk with a regular and repetitive rhythm along the many corridors in the Montparnasse-Bienvenüe tube station. I appropriate the space throughout the time of the performance. I'm in the middle of a continual bustle of bodies. Various body rhythms appear. My moving body relays its own tempo. Sometimes it adapts to the environment's tempo, sometimes it sets against it. »

  7. Echo - Part II, sound installation

    Technological interconnection of a stairwell in the IFI - IPEM building in Noisy-le-Grand (Fr) and the Montparnasse-Bienvenüe tube station in Paris (Fr) via the GSM network. Diffusion in real time of the sound from the walking for the entire duration of the performance.
