Guest artists at La Box for the exhibition The Tuning of the afterworld
Participants: 12 students

Building on the circuit-sculptures presented in the exhibition at La Box, we will guide the students in discovering electronics and metalwork (brass, copper). After prototyping and developing a sound and/or light circuit, they will mount it as a sculpture using jewelry-making techniques. A set of tool-sculptures: glass, ceramic and concrete speakers dialogue with a set of listening benches inspired by sand conveyors, as well as archipelago tables that present the elements and findings from the investigation. Here, each element tries both to give a voice to this mineral with many faces, as a way for it to tell its own story, and to raise in the background the question of managing a common good that has become an object of speculation. While it has transformed the world as well as our ways of living and communicating, its intensive exploitation is causing it to become scarce and prompts us to rethink our futures.

Participants: 12 students

With the students, we will imagine a set of creations based on simple, autonomous and mobile sound devices. We will cover the basics of sound and electronics techniques in an approach that champions autonomy, economy of means and reappropriation.

This column, created for the association BrutPop and the magazine Le Papotin, offers tutorials for sound, sensory or scientific experiments that are easy to reproduce on a modest budget. Here you can download the images to try these experiments yourself!

For the second tutorial, you can download the synth code for the Arduinos here.

URBS is a sound object-book in which urban stories from different eras intermingle. Tremblay-en-France was the starting point of this journey through time, image and sound, during which we asked ourselves how our city has shaped our imaginations. By immersing ourselves in the city's evolution, our daily paths and the places that build our memories, we projected ourselves into the future evolution of our territory.
