Codex amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive breeding phenomenon)
Fr : Codex amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive breeding phenomenon) est une série de compositions issues d’une étude de terrain menée en 2016 avec Antoine Fouquet (herpétologue, chargé de recherche au CNRS) en Guyane. Explorant le frottement entre la phonographie et l’électronique, l’approche scientifique et artistique, Codex amphibia explore le phénomène méconu des reproductions explosives, brefs rassemblements de plusieurs centaines de milliers de grenouilles occasionnant des murs de sons d’environ 100 décibels.
Production : CEBA (centre d'étude pour la biodiversité amazonienne), Le Lieu Multiple, Jazz à Poitiers, Césaré, SCAM, Studio d’en Haut.
Le Field recording / Thomas Tilly : Il ne s’agit pas que de capter le son, mais de placer le microphone au même rang que l’instrument de musique et d’envisager la situation de cet instrument dans l’espace comme une méthode de composition, il s’agit de détourner son rôle d’outil de communication pour appréhender l’onde sonore autrement. S’attaquer à un immatériel croisant tout ce qui constitue et conditionne le matériel, s’attacher à parler et user du bruit comme quelque chose de précieux et unique, et confronter ce bruit à ce que l’on appelle musique.

Eng : Musician whose principle instrument is a microphone. For twelve years he has been composing, inventing sound art installations and teaching. His work has been presented in more than 15 countries. Tilly finds inspiration in different environmental analysis protocols and how they have impact on the notion of listening.
Codex amphibia / (an interpretation of the explosive breeding phenomenon) : This project comes from a research field session realized with Antoine Fouquet, Research associate at The French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) « Ecology, environment and interactions in Amazonian systems Lab » (LEEISA) and the « Evolution and Biological diversity Lab », Codex Amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive breeding phenomenon) is supported by le lieu Multiple, Jazz à Poitiers, Centre national de création musical Césaré, CNRS Guyane, and Labex CEBA (Center for the study of biodiversity in Amazonia),

On Codex Amphibia, Thomas Tilly lets the field recordings take the reins. Collected in Guiana in late 2016 as part of a field research project with the French National Center for Scientific Research, the mostly unprocessed selections paint vivid pictures of a lush natural environment. Leaves rustle, water bubbles, and the ribbits of the titular amphibians are just a few of the sonic elements that comprise the organically dense collages, and the masterful production ensures that everything is heard clearly. The digital version comes with a few photos that I assume were taken during the recording process, and it’s a testament to the album’s clarity that they’re almost exactly like what I was picturing in my mind while I was listening. It’s one of the most intensely immersive albums I’ve ever heard, with Tilly’s subtle additions in the form of sine waves and quiet drones keep anything from seeming too stagnant. Codex Amphibia is a truly awe-inspiring work, one that I’m sure will reveal more layers as time goes on. https://noisenotmusic.com

TARAB
Tarab (Eamon Sprod, (TARAB) explores re-contextualised collected sounds and tactile gestures formed into dynamic, psycho-geographical compositions inspired by discarded things, found things, crawling around in the dirt, junk, the ground, rocks, dust, wind, walking aimlessly, scratchy things, decay and most if not all the things he hears and sees. More than simply documenting a given site, TARAB is interested in a direct engagement with our surrounds, teasing out half narratives, visceral sensation, false leads and heightened awareness. Recent works have consisted of multi-channel, site responsive performances and installations for speakers, transducers, found sounds, found things, microphones and elements of the performance/installation space itself.
TARAB's compositional works have been published on labels including Naturestrip (AU), nonlinear (AU), 23five (US), Unfathomless (BE), Aposiopese (FR), Swarming (FR), Cronica (PT), Semperflorens (RU) and also his own sonicrubbish imprint formed in 2018.

YVAN ETIENNE
Eng : French artist/activist Yvan Etienne, is engaged in research in the field of sound art. (specific site installations, concerts,). As a musician, he composes and plays pieces using electronic, phonography, analog synthesizers and the hurdy-gurdy. His sound art research questions the perception and physicality of sound spaces.
He has also played with Phill Niblock, Yann Gourdon, Richard Glover, Brice Jeannin, Patrice Grente, Robert Poss, Paul Panhuysen, Marie Verry...
Lives and works in Mulhouse, Fr.
Fr : Yvan Etienne est artiste/activiste, il élabore des installations intermédia, des dispositifs de diffusions scénographiques, des concerts.
Conçus comme des espaces à expérimenter, ses travaux sont généralement liés aux contextes, aux spécificités in situ, acoustiques et architecturales des espaces investis. Ses projets explorent les propriétés immersives, invisibles, mouvantes et fugaces du son, pour rejouer nos appréhensions et construire un dialogue en écho avec des corps résonnants (visiteurs, architectures, contextes). Réalisés à partir de sculptures, de phonographies, de compositions instrumentales, électroniques, ses expériences convoquent réflexions intuitives et questionnement des stéréotypes de la perception.
En tant que musicien, il compose et joue des pièces utilisant la vielle à roue, les synthétiseurs analogiques, la phonographie et l’électronique. Ses recherches questionnent la perception des corps résonants.
