el TCG is developing sound research around the notion of immersive sound spaces, based on the perception of sounds in motion. The spatialized fragmentation of a continuous sound, for example, gives rise to an auditory experience in which each frequency segment is perceived as coming from distinct directions, enriching the spatial dimension of listening. He works with a modular synthesizer, enabling him to create a unique sound material that can be modulated in real time. The choreographies used in octophony are inspired by nature (celestial or geological movements, fluids or the living world, mechanical movements...) to poetically confront them through changes of scale. This album was recorded in the St Julien church in Caen, during the Interstice festival on May 14, 2023. A publication of Laboratoire Modulaire - ésam Caen/Cherbourg.
Nicolas Germain, visual artist/musician, has been performing since the 1980s under the name el TiGeR CoMiCs GRoUP, producing "JujuArt Shows, visual and sonic exercises". Influenced by the punk rock and electronic scene of the 70s, he has developed a language that draws its raw material from the history of popular music and its links with the visual arts. In his work, sound becomes visual and images become sound.
Over the last few years he has been developing an artistic and sound research project around the notion of immersive sound spaces and the perception of sounds in movement. He works with a modular synthesiser that enables him to create a unique sound material that can be modulated in real time. He also works on forms of sound visualisation created by spectral analysis (sonograms), creating 3-dimensional forms modulated in real time, in particular from sounds inaccessible to the human ear.
