is an event organized by the Art of Failure collective. The multimedia
project CORPUS reposes on sound interventions in four sites of
Aquitaine, chosen for their architectural specificities. Each
intervention offers one to participate to a unique sound experience,
where architecture is set in vibration.  In parallel, a series of
meetings with artists,  whose work deals with architecture and sound
alike, will
allow to perceive and experience the current stakes regarding these crossings.

CORPUS

is both a sound, architectural and multimedia apparatus, which sets in
vibration objects, furnitures or components in a dedicated
space. The whole is activated, "brought to life", and specific tones are then revealed. The site is transformed in a sole and
vast instrument.
CORPUS brings a physical and unique experience, a sensitive as well as
ghostly relationship with ones' environment. This experience is
accurately conceived according to the characteristics of each place.
Each concert and site specific installation will be recorded. These
audiovisual archives will then be exhibited at Oara - Molière scène d'Aquitaine, as well as on the dedicated website.
