In situ sound performance
Variable duration, 2005-2025

‍
A powerful low-frequency generator, previously tuned to the architecture, is activated live during an improvisation. The phenomenon of sympathetic resonance allows certain elements of the building (structures, windows, pipes...) to vibrate until they produce their own sounds and enrich the bass with new harmonics. The former Chandoline hydroelectric plant is transformed into an immense acoustic instrument, inviting us, for the duration of a performance, to listen to it vibrate.

Warning: the performance may produce moments of high sound pressure. Hearing protection for youngsters is recommended.
