"A maritime concept : "Waves, of a progressive nature, which reverberate in a tidal basin in the opposite direction to the direct flow". The idea was to create a way of addressing the question of influence : the indirect influence of flows and currents in relation to a specific geographical space (Melbourne) / the direct and indirectly-flowing influences on the appearance of a physical or intellectual form / the influence of flow on drifting bodies in a moving environment / the observation of such phenomena in a city, its centre, its suburbs, its peripheries / ..."-Passage d'encres

Artist Biographies
• Show Bio for Jean-Luc Guionnet "Jean-Luc Guionnet is an elusive figure. A Parisian artist active in many fields (music, visual arts, cinema), he has mostly worked in electro-acoustics but also has a career in free improvisation, playing alto saxophone, soprano saxophone, church organ, and piano. He has collaborated with Éric La Casa, Éric Cordier, and André Almuro on tape music. His main free improv and jazz projects include Hubbub, Schams, Return of the New Thing, and the Joe Rosenberg quintet. Guionnet made scientific studies before shifting to fine arts. He studied musique concrete under Iannis Xenakis and Michel Zbar, but also pursued studies in philosophy (esthetics) with Geneviève Clancy. His first works date from the late '80s and are mostly collaborations with filmmaker André Almuro (some have been issued by Ground Fault). Then came a lasting partnership with electro-acousticians Éric Cordier and Éric La Casa. Together they wrote the series "Afflux." Guionnet also produces the Ateliers de Création Radiophoniques ("creative radio workshops") for France Culture. His eclecticism has kept him at bay of recognition -- because to the eye of the press it strips him from some credibility and because running careers in philosophy (he was co-director for the review Terre des Signes from 1993 to 1996), painting (he exhibited from 1992 to 1997), and music simultaneously tends to be time-consuming. The release of an eponymous CD by Dan Warburton's free jazz quartet Return of the New Thing in 1999 on the respected label Leo Records introduced Guionnet to a wider audience. Since then his activities as an improviser have constantly stretched toward the fringes of experimentalism. His participation in the French-Swiss group Hubbub and his duo with guitarist Olivier Benoit (&Un, 2002) follow the school of Berlin reductionism." ^ Hide Bio for Jean-Luc Guionnet • Show Bio for Eric La Casa "968: Born in Tours, France. ^ Hide Bio for Eric La Casa
