echo from afar (ii)(2022), for six musicians and electronics

Commissioned by Alcôme
Premiered on March 08, 2023, at ACOUSMONIUM International festival of multichannel electroacoustic music, Echoraum, Vienna.
Performed by: Paul Ramage

《Yin System》draw inspiration from System S, Alcôme's first collective creation project in 2013. The 《System S》 project revolves mainly around the nine planets of the solar system. Today, 10 years later, I draw inspiration from it for 《Yin System》.

In Taoist philosophy, the sun represents "yang." The opposite of "yang" is "yin," and Yin System represents a different image of 《System S》. In 《Yin System》, I have incorporated a lot of materials derived from recordings of soundscapes and human voices. I wanted this piece to be imbued with human emotions. If we consider System S as a story of planets in the sky, then Yin System is a story of humans on Earth.

Florentin Ginot • double bass

Desert bloom is a piece for double bass and electronics, which highlights the natural harmonics of the strings. These sounds, played quickly and rhythmically, create a sonic fabric that is both delicate and virtuoso. A wobbly pulsation frames this music close to caprice or baroque invention, to give it a dreamlike and repetitive, even psychedelic, character.
Double bassist Florentin GINOT, leaning over his instrument, dances with it, brushing against it, touching it delicately but with precision. It is an intimate performance, a close listening, which invites an attention which does not impose a direction, but rather which encourages the abandonment of a search for the consequence. We allow ourselves to sensitively listen to the sound in its present moment, losing the notion of time.

Sodo(蘇塗) incarne une exploration sonore profonde de la signification et de la conception de Sodo, une région sacrée et religieuse qui a existé en 300 av. J.-C. (avant Jésus-Christ) où les anciens coréens ont prié pour leur voeux et leur bien-être. 
Sodo était aussi un endroit fortement protégée par la religion. Ceux qui y entraient, même s'ils étaient des criminels, n’étaient pas capturés ou punis.

Life is the process of realizing the connection between the world and me, and eventually everything becomes one, just like this piece.

The conception of this work is based on capturing the moment before of a catastrophe. Develop that instant, expand it into a fiction of multiple temporal and spatial folds. Sounds of explosions, crowds, whispers, alarms and machines are organized in a narrative as violent as dreamlike. A voice, sometimes human and sometimes robotic, emits numbers. At first, the numbers do not seem to be incisive, but little by little they introduce their semantic value that resignifies listening. The poetics, the gesture and the games of reliefs in perspective (profundity of the internal space )are fundamental concepts in my work.

La concepción de esta obra se basa en capturar el instante anterior a una catástrofe.  Desarrollar ese instante, expandirlo en una ficción de múltiples pliegues temporales y espaciales. Sonidos de explosiones, multitudes, susurros, alarmas y máquinas se organizan en una narrativa tan violenta como ensoñada. Una voz, a veces humana y otras veces robótica, emite números, al principio, los números no parecen ser incisivos, pero poco a poco introducen su valor semántico que  resignfican  la escucha.  La poética , el gesto y  el espacio interno como perspectiva  en profundidad (relieve) son conceptos fundamentales en mi  trabajo.
