Big Wheel (2006) soundwalk
artists audio creation : Milliseconde Topographie [Bernier+Measroch] • download the entire track! [mp3] • download the map [pdf] description / program note In a radiophonic style, Big Wheel is a half-fiction half-documentary soundwalk based on anecdotes and hearsay. The sources largely come from concrete sounds, soundscapes and talking voices in relation with the past and present history of the Great Library neighborhood. This peculiar guided walk combines the principal musical activities of the Milliseconde topographie duet : acousmatic music, instrumental music and soundscapes. In a playful way, Big Wheel builds links between people from yesterday and people from today and lets them intersect in the the same urban manege. Big Wheel appears to the listener as an hybrid mosaic of rumours and anecdotes seized in flight, as if coming out disorderedly from a souvenir box.. Big Wheel was commisionned by Champ Libre for the 7e Manifestation Internationale vidéo et art électronique (MIVAEM). installation from september 20th to october 1st 2006 Grand Bibliothèque 475, De Maisonneuve Est Montréal (Québec) |
