DAY BY DAY PROGRAM

IRCAM welcomes several installations selected by the NIME 06 jury. Improvisers, performers, instrument inventers, and experimenters in digital technology, these artists push the limits of what is planned and what is composed, and make "interaction" their principal credo.

For their creation, Seule avec Loup, Nicole and Norbert Corsino invite the audience to a three-dimensional navigation. This installation will be shown after the festival until June 26.

A sound installation exists in the specific space it defines. Transparent automaton boxes by Juan Cristobal Cerrillo in the nave of IRCAM, the sea-quaking of plates by Jean-François Laporte in the place Stravinsky, and other installations from NIME 06.

The IRCAM's Multimedia library is a specialized library, both the living memory and of an institute and a rich platform for experimentation with new technologies for musical documentation. The collaboration between Ircam and the CNRS has resulted in a common collection of books, periodicals and scores.

Presentation stands for laboratories, companies and educational establishments active in the field of music technology.

Reflection on the creative process, Apocalypsis, the new piece by Philippe Leroux, is considered both after the event and during its creation. Following the event because the material that furnished the composition comes from the reworking of the piece that preceeded the creation of Apocalypsis, Voi(rex). The piece's creation because its form mimics the chronology of the compositional stages in Voi(rex) : twenty minutes of music for twenty months of work.
