Fixed media piece for 4 channels and subtitles. 19′
Travelogue#1 was composed from a set of recordings made in November 2012, of a few historically important, or merely iconic buildings or sites around the south of France and Switzerland. It is a soundlog of those places, but also of that journey, compromised by the specific atmospheres and circumstances. The structure of the piece corresponds to the structure of the journey, and it plays with the tensions between collection and recollection, recognition and imagination, documentation and representation.
Premiered on the 13th December 2013, at the Musica Viva Festival, Teatro Municipal São Luiz, Lisbon, and played again at Ibrasotope, São Paulo, Brazil.
