Et si Biarritz était un choeur? (What If Biarritz Were A Chorus?)
I walk to encounter the city, to fill myself with it: my Biarritz, theirs. Could what I am looking for lie in the very movement of walking? The movement of my body, of the city, of water, and the movements that pass through us?

Petite(s) histoire(s) et pratiques des PAS- Parcours audio sensibles, promenades écoutantes, façon Desartsonnants
C’est milieu des années 80, un peu plus de quarante ans aujourd’hui, alors que j’œuvrais conjointement dans le paysage et la musique que je fis deux rencontres déterminantes. L’une autour du paysage et de l’écologie sonore par la lecture du livre de Murray Schafer « The tuning of the word », l’autre celle d’Élie Tête et de […]

Point d’ouïe, hybridations, co-écritures
Le photographe a l’œil aguerri, aventureux même. Il débusque et capte les lignes, les enfilades, les volumes, les couleurs, les plans, de sublimes trivialités.
