"Atlas Epileptic represents for Pierre-André Arcand a new cycle in the continuity of what is called audio art, sound poetry, music, non-music, acoustic, electronic, digital. He brings in the voice, the Resonant book, some other found or invented instruments, processed by multi-effects and the digital Macchina ricordi [MRN], a visual and sonic evolution generator. It is used in live performance to sample and structure the sounds produced on the spot. The MRN can also process audio files, fixed sounds. And so were produced The gene of speech and Atlas epileptic. Samples were taken in his previous works. Metamusic. Finally, Portuaire, an older piece made with the analogical MR finds its place in the tonality of the final triptych."-Ambiance Magnetiques
