2010-05-26 1 0 Vimeo

Philippe Starck is known everywhere as a creator, a designer, and an architect; as a unique and polymorphous man. During this extraordinary experience, involving audience participation, we will get a rare and unique view of the artist. The New York-based sound art collective Soundwalk offers guided walks that mark the halfway point between Baudelarian wanderings and cinematographic experiences, and allow the listener to discover a city in a uniquely poetic way. Philippe Starck and Soundwalk invite you to a collective adventure in the form of a search for the sound that we lack. Is it a voice, a note, a noise? This resonant exploration is based on a playful dialogue between Philippe Starck, Soundwalk, and the public. Through altered reality, the manipulation of sound, and musical interpretations, this show will guide us together to the discovery of a unique sound: the sound of Us. In the performance, Philippe Starck will share with us his passion for sound, while members of Soundwalk, accompanied by instrumentalists and sound technicians, will respond to Starck using sounds captured around the world over the course of the last decade. A performance show conceived for the Exit Festival. Concept and performance: Philippe Starck Sound creation and musical direction: Soundwalk Initiative, scenography and production: Label Dalbin
