Forêt profonde

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Francis Dhomont's Forêt profonde. This work is an acousmatic melodrama, based on Bruno Bettelheim's essay The Uses of Enchantment, of which this is the third version. Forêt profonde comprises 13 sections, of which the 6 Rooms (sections 1, 3, 6, 8, 10 and 12) constitute transit periods/areas, secret passages of sort, between the seven thematic sections (sections 2, 4,5, 7, 9, 11 and 13). These Rooms contain little or no text. Each of the 13 sections borrows a brief element, a color, an atmosphere, from the 13 Kinderszenen (Scenes from Childhood) op. 15 from Schumann, as a tribute to this pathetic composer, engulfed in the depth of his forest.

The Poet takes us on an inner journey, that of a lifetime, in which each of us can situate ourselves, recognize ourselves, identify with the narrator. Narrative, linear and structured, seems to be an ideal form for this progression of being. I therefore extracted from the original short story the key phrases of each stage of the journey, and took, in order to preserve its linear character, the party of simple reading, monotone at the beginning and going by becoming animated. The musical form is derived from the words and the structure of the text along three axes: That of time which, long non-existent, fixed, outside of man, gives itself a "hic et nunc", then a past and a future, and accelerates, …

Le miroir à salade

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Eric Mulard's Le miroir à salade. In the manner of Russian dolls, the Salad Mirror plays around obsessive and ultimately comical interlockings between audio stories from everyday life, including the meaning and sound of the words that structure it, are intertwined. The Salad Mirror is this time of listening during which the sound and the meaning of situations and words are as if in a state of weightlessness, without it being known in the end which of the two is anticipating on the other.
