MATTHIEU FUENTES : Ten​-​Room Banquet

'The acoustic situations presented in Ten-Room Banquet were constructed by hybridized processes. Their constituent matter explores relationships between an idea of synthetic and of « picked up reality ». Field recording, « sound-designed » spaces, performative situations, synthesizers, analog and digital studio manipulations… are used to experiment different approaches to audio perception.
Through concrète compositions, a poetic narrative unfolds, from nervous collages to smoother sequences. Talking to itself, the “banquet hall of the Brain ” (V. Maïakovski, Backbone Flute) involves tangible and fictional events, illusions, abstract matters and melodies in perceptually disoriented objects. Spaces interlock like Russian dolls, unconscious images cross paths.
