Industrial wastelands, abandoned railways, human remains within the abbey, this Sound Walk touches upon the remnants of human activity.

Cybernetics date from antiquity as a governing art; heavy responsibilities were given to ship pilots in the course of war operations. In the 50s, Weiner defined cybernetics as the knowledge of a set of phenomena that can appear within a belligerent, mechanical, biological or other form of system, together with the implementation of the communication required for effective action. The aim devoid of any metaphysical aspect.

Cyberecology underlines how mankind, in separating himself from nature, establishes a distance from and a power over his environment which ensures him his essential primary living conditions. The town, and especially the new town, built from above by politicians and technicians, stands as a social and a technological machine. It reflects a pragmatic trend in land planning, a faith, a belief carried by science, where the successive ideologies of modernity -positivism, scientism, humanism, hygienism, materialism, etc- are borne by the collective unconscious and education, allowing man to free himself from the bondage of nature through technology. .

DVD 2009
14,90 € from Metamkine
A documentary-opera-film written and directed by Pierre Redon and Edmond Carrère.

DVD cover with notes by the directors and the composer, and graphic scores.

In the Contamines-Montjoie valley, in Haute Savoie, snow groomers have little by little replaced the hay wagons. Within half a century, the winter tourist industry has transformed the life of the inhabitants; now that the white gold mine is wearing out, feelings are contradictory, and something like bitterness is beginning to be acknowledged. How can we view the invisible ties that link men to their land?  “Miage”, a documentary-opera, with the presence of a string quartet and a band of Alphorns, illustrates this attachment. This ecological fable is accompanied by music to draw an original portrait of a highland territory undergoing deep change..

This collaborative effort brings us some of the most beautiful and atmospheric instances of composition with nature. The four tracks, some solitary works, some creatied by using field sourcings of the opponent, feature subtle wildlife field recordings, detailed electro-acoustic passages, swelling metallic drones and amplified silences.

ALBERT GASSER - Naturalist (voice FR)

This first Sound Walk is the outcome of a  proposal by Pierre Redon, whose artistic work has for several years  focussed on mountainous areas. Around fifteen personalities and local actors living and working on the site of Markstein have been interviewed by the artist about  certain  emblematic subjects concerning the territory : arnica, agriculture, tourism, and ski practice. These testimonies invite the walker to question his relationship with landscape and the environment. The sound compositions were created by the artist from field recordings during the winter 2007.
