ELEVENELEVEN RADIO PODCAST
ELEVENELEVEN :: 10 CEDRIC PEYRONNET (FRANCE)  IMPROVISED RADIO PIECE

IMPROVISED RADIO PIECE
Cédric Peyronnet (Bellac/France)
www.ingeos.org

"A totally improvised radio piece dealing with the relationships I can draw between some of the works I’ve done these last 10 years. I revisit the archives 1998-2008. My work is always "site" based: a place is explored, recorded, played, then becomes a matter for the studio work; a piece is always about a place, and is always composed only with sound material gathered in - a really very important point to me. It is never a ‘phonography’ of the place but an interpretation of the place. " ~ Cédric Peyronnet

Cédric Peyronnet (aka toy.bizarre / ingeos) is a sound artist working since 1990 with phonography and soundscapes, using the principles of concrete, acousmatic, electroacoustic music. Peyronnet’s  practice of “sound mapping”, the exploration of places by sound recording, listening and sound sculpting, take form in compositions and sound pieces, concerts, sound screenings and sound installations.

Cédric Peyronnet is performing at Liquid Architecture 9, Australia’ s premier sound-arts festival throughout July 2008.

Liquid Architecture , Australia’s premier sound-arts festival, celebrates its ninth consecutive year with concerts, surround sound presentations, audio-visual and recorded work, exhibitions and installations. Featuring our most imaginative musicians, composers, sound designers and media artists in a sense-specific feast for the ears.

International highlights include Robert Normandeau (Canada) , world renowned electro acoustic composer, in Australia also for the Australian Computer Music Association conference; Cedric Peyronnet / toy.bizarre (France) whose works focus on phonography and field recordings, and who will spend time mapping on location prior to performing; Marcus Schmickler (Germany) who will present experimental and electronic compositions from his Altars of Science release 2007; and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Pekler (Germany) , well known for his atmospheric soundscapes.

LIQUID ARCHITECTURE (SYDNEY) is calling for submissions for sound-based installation works and video-based short screen works to be presented at Liquid Architecture 9, Sydney 2008.

VISIT THE LIQUID ARCHITECTURE 9 SYDNEY WEBSITE

Liquid Architecture is Australia’s premier sound-arts festival that celebrates the diverse methods of sound making and sound theory. Occurring annually since 2000, Liquid Architecture is a sense specific festival that focuses upon sound practice in all its manifestations. Due to the cross disciplinary potential of sound, the artistic content of the festival encompasses many art practices, presented in the form of live performances, exhibitions, installations, AV presentations and recorded works. A key objective of the festival is the promotion of artists practicing on the periphery of music and sound culture, particularly those with an experimental aesthetic and a critical approach to media cultures. Liquid Architecture is held annually in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and features performances and works by Australian and international artists.

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

1. Installations
Liquid Architecture Sydney is calling for submissions for sound-based installations. We are seeking discrete sound works that are “over-spill” sensitive or that utilise headphones. Installation sounds should be brief, soft or otherwise non-competitive with other installations. The selected art works will be presented in a medium size room alongside the main performance space, over two nights during Liquid Architecture 9 (Sydney) 11-12 July 2008. Submissions are due by 1st April, 2008.

2. Screen Works
Liquid Architecture Sydney will be screening a curated reel of short video works in 2008. We are seeking works that explore intrinsic sound and video relations. These can be narrative, abstract or anything in-between but must include sound as an element front and centre. Submissions are due by 1st May, 2008.
