about

LE CHANT DU PONT VOLANT (Création/Commission)
CITYSONICS, MONS, BELGIUM

The bridge echoes with a secret language of the vibrations within the structure, songs of the inaudible and inexpressible, desires and dreams, the voices of those who have crossed or jumped into the river below. 'The city is our temple, electronic networks our religion and the sound of the bridge cables is the voice of the divine.'

Accompanied by video performances and sketches for compositions of an imaginary 'Global Bridge Symphony,' the audio installation pays homage to the bridge as cathedral and musical instrument. At times the concrete dominates with traffic and metallic clangs singing in a dark cacophony, while the sounds of construction dissolve into a transcendent abstract soundscape swirling through the chapel in homage to the flying singing bridge of imagination.

JODI ROSE (AUS/ALL) : LE CHANT DU PONT VOLANT (Création)

Cette nouvelle installation est issue du projet Singing Bridges développé par Jodi Rose depuis une dizaine d'années à travers le monde. Il s’agit d’une série de compositions et performances basées sur le son vibratoire des cables et structures porteuses des ponts, aboutissant à une « Global Bridge Symphony ». Au sein d’une ancienne chapelle, Jodi Rose nous plonge dans les conditions d’écoute et d’expérience de ce vaste projet ; une mise en scène poétique et aérienne, permettant au visiteur d’entendre les chants captés et retravaillés par l’artiste. Un pont "chantant" suspendu créé spécifiquement est ainsi installé et joue le paysage minimaliste des textures sonores issues des ponts.

Le dispositif comprend également des diffusions vidéos de performances visuelles live, ainsi que l’exposition de “partitions” (plans retravaillés) ayant servi à l’exploration musicale des ponts.
