The Zag Zig Collection, at City Sonic

For its tenth edition, the International Festival of Sound Arts, City Sonic 2012, in Mons, Belgium, invites the ZagZig collection, published by éditions Dis Voir, and directed by Philippe Langlois,  Frank Smith & Danièle Rivière, to imagine an audiovisual installation around this collection, which stands as an exception in the field of sound art.

The aim of this editorial space is, through a movement of translation, to bring sound works into existence in the form of books / discs conceived with the artists in order to create genuine, innovative art objects.

This installation created for City Sonic invites visitors to immerse themselves in listening to the sound works produced within the collection. The visual devices, with photos and texts made by the artists and taken from the books, will be projected in parallel in order to take a position within the sound texture.

Co-production : Transcultures/ City Sonic and Dis Voir
