Le paysage Mons le son, ici ou ailleurs! (premiere)
This work plays on the sound identities of Mons, while rubbing them together with those of other visited countries.
Here and there confront each other, in a dialogue between sounds local and exotic, in an imaginary landscape.
It is a unique brew of soundcapes in their local affiliations but also virtually universal for portable listening.
Production : Transcultures, Desartsonnants
Sonic Radio
Sonic Radio, c’est la radio du festival, lancée en 2009, qui vous propose des interviews, jingles, comptes-rendus, déambulations et autres surprises sonores de première main réalisés à chaud pendant le montage et l’ouverture du festival et diffusé sur le site web du festival ainsi que via des décrochages de radios indie complices.
Cette année YouFM est de nouveau de la partie et la Sonic Radio sera coordonnée, en lien avec l’équipe de Transcultures, par Gilles Malatray (lire l’interview de l’édition 2014) et Zoe Tabourdiot.
Parallèlement à cela, la Sonic Radio couvre les grands événements et temps forts du festival City Sonic.
Gilles Malatray
Gilles Malatray (Lyon) has been directing Desartsonnants, an indestructible website of amateurs (in the best sense of the word), a comprehensive website which is also a breeding ground for all lovers of the « other sound », for over 10 years. Curious wanderer, he likes to walk in towns, in the woods … especially as a “listening walker” when he likes to quote Michel Chion. His initial training are the scenery and music (saxophone), then a “recovery of late study” with a degree in litterature and a Master in “cultural and artistic Project Management” at the University Lyon 2.
Despite his recurring escapades in sound art, he continues nevertheless, in his free time, to play the saxophone, to sing or to listen to Bach or Bartok … “sound arts and music are not incompatible as sometimes the boundaries between the two is tenuous and uncertain”.
Over the years Gilles has built one of the largest and most interesting sources of information about sound art « Desartsonnants ».
