[english]

two improvisations.

first with three people, three practices, three visions for sounds:

"TD-OS mingle stories, music, and field recordings; voices emerging from notes, scratches tracking silence, a landscape only waiting for the beat to get a word in edgeways. Wouldn't it be merely radio?
Except that improvisation remains the basic principle. Don't know where we are going, neither with who, but we will hear, once arrived. Eventually, it's funnier and so much more surprising.
Samuel Hirsch, Christophe Rault, Arnaud Forest and Charlie Marcelet (sound-engineer) endeavour to realise their own 'ive radiography' and present 28 minutes from their piece 'The Dad… or some'" [F.P.]

then within fiction, in three episodes – plunging into the white nights of the captain, an improvisation in its own right:

"'Les nuits blanches du captain' est une fiction sonore en trois épisodes, crée par Jacques Foschia.
Les éléments textuels servent de guide à l'écoute. Le capitaine évolue essentiellement dans un milieu liquide et flottant. L'usage dematériaux sonores qui y font constamment référence (le capitaine échoue dans un océan d'ondes éléctromagnétiques et termine sa course sur une plage de vinyl) submerge l'auditeur et l'emmène dans sa dérive." [PdJ]
