Blank Memory & Live Akousma

A multimedia performance created by ErikM with Idiosyncrasy & Sound-map
Live streaming & real time

Blank memory & live akousma is a device that makes it possible to create an
acousmatic work in real time. It takes on the form of a multimedia performance.
It is a work in the present, connected to the Internet and streaming via microphones
set up in different locations around the planet. One of the systems used here is the
sound map developed by Locus Sonus at the Aix-en-Provence art school.
A map of the world is projected simultaneously on the screen, showing the off-site
sources selected for the work. The different locations and their sounds include a
garden in New York, a sheep pen in Sainte Baume, Provence, and a portion of the
Hawaiian seabed.
The sound matrix plays in real time into the space over eight loudspeakers via a
Holopad, a tool developed by the GMEM-CNCM in Marseille.
