Conversations: une production de Paulo Dantas avec le soutien du programme Interfaces, Q-O2, FMDO et BNA-BBOT, et avec la participation de Henry, Ludo, Rihab, Julia, Séverine, Houssem, Sabrina, Flavien et la ville de Bruxelles. Je recommande d’entendre ce programme avec les fenêtres et les portes ouvertes, non seulemente pour le diffuser dans tout les coins, mais aussi pour laisser les sons de la ville se fondre dans les sons du programme.
Paulo Dantas (Rio de Janeiro / Brazil) works as a musician / sound artist, teacher and sound technician. In the past 9 years he's been teaching Musical Analysis / Experimental Music / Music Technology at UNIRIO (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro's State), with emphasis on fieldrecordings, indeterminacy and composition, specificities of analysis of stereo phonograms, introduction to programming on PureData / SuperCollider and analysis of concert music repertoire. His interests as a researcher resulted in a deeper engagement and collaboration with artists of the current Brazilian experimental / underground music scene, doing technical phonographic work such as recording, mixing, mastering and programming in Pure Data, as well as organizing concerts, publishing articles, playlists and compilations. His recent artistic work is connected to free improvisation and composition with field recordings. His two solo albums, Cidade Arquipélago and 20160810_19:50:??_-22.920972,-43.238181 are comprised of binaural recordings, made in such different cities as Curitiba, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, São Paulo, Shuzenji and Tokyo.
