A previously unreleased composition developed from recordings of radio waves as well as fragments of voices and sounds gleaned by the Soundwalk collective, during a two-month crossing on a sailing boat specially equipped for the occasion with scanners, microphones and long-range antennas. Medea touches on Turkey, Georgia, Russia, Crimea, Ukraine, Romania and Bulgaria, and proceeds as a sonic reading of this region of the world where beauty vibrates, bloody and dark \u2014 like the ancient Medea.<br>\n\tThe book unfolds the sound composition of the CD included in this volume and brings together photographs by Stephan Crasneanscki and texts by Arthur Larrue.<br>\n\tTaken at nightfall, the photographs convey, in a particularly icy chiaroscuro, the fatal character of the regions explored.<br>\n\tThe texts, for their part, recount the stages of the sound creation in the form of a Journal de la Mer Noire, kept during the expedition.<br>\n\tTogether they invite immersion in a strange and disquieting universe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" height=\"263\" src=\"https:\/\/philippelanglois.net\/lcd\/wp-content\/uploads\/Medea Image.jpg\" width=\"351\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.soundwalk.com\/\">Soundwalk<\/a> is an international artistic collective based in New York.<br>\n\tSince 2000, Soundwalk, as a nomad of sound, ceaselessly undertaking improbable journeys, from the desolate land of Bessarabia as far as the Rub al Khali desert.
