sound & light installation
As part of the exhibition Back on Senne, we created in collaboration with Romain Tardy an installation combining light (him) and sound (me) for the Sewer Museum.
The sound piece is built from recordings I captured along the river Senne and directly inside the sewers, focusing on their resonances, flows, and distinctive acoustic textures. I combined these raw materials with sounds of animals commonly found in sewer environments, often invisible yet integral to this underground ecosystem.
This process was very exciting and was carried out in collaboration with numerous stakeholders in the field, such as Brussels Environment and Vivaqua. This gave us access to locations and data that were more or less confidential.
This soundscape also responds in real time to data from the river: its pH, flow rate, the concentration of certain particles, etc. We created a code that links some of my effects to this data via OSC, and that is how the Senne interacts with the soundscape.
