RETHINKING IMMERSION

What happens when our perception of space, sounds, reality is altered by a work?

How do innovative artistic forms, through innovative technologies, envelop our senses to take us into familiar or strange universes?

What are the tools of tomorrow that will revolutionize theatrical, musical and performance creation?

How can today's artists and structures learn about these devices?

These questions are at the heart of the Immersive Times day . We seek, through multi-sensory experiences, to deeply rethink immersive creation.   It is about going beyond the metonymic thinking of the theatre where a tree signifies a forest – let’s bring the Forest into the theatre.

SPATIALIZATION AT THE SERVICE OF CREATION

skin deep.jpeg

Spatialization consists of locating and moving sounds in space , and modulating, through psychoacoustic effects, our perception of sound sources.

This technology recreates the presence of voices , instruments, noises and other sounds in the real environment around us.

Designed as a tool for immersion and experimentation, spatialization can be combined with other techniques (mapping, binaural sound, multiprojection, virtual reality, etc.) to open up new artistic perimeters .

This device radically modifies the methods of representation and the possibilities of creation, and allows us to rethink the relationships between space, sound, artists and audiences.

GET STARTED, IMMERSE YOURSELF

Today we are able to host a wide range of theatrical, musical, performance and other creations based on this 3D audio spatialization system, as well as various professional and private events.

The Immersive Times day aims to introduce you , through several demonstrations, presentations and discussions, to these possibilities and the technology that makes them real.

SOUNDSCAPES

Soundscapes are a series of sound creations that immerse the observer in environments through spatialization. At the heart of these landscapes, there are birds from all over the world. Their songs intertwine to create a “ Super-Nature ”, whose sounds evoke three supernatural biomes: Hell ( GN_6.66 ), Purgatory ( XP_6.77 ) and Paradise ( GN_7.77 ).

SOUNDSCAPE - Hell GN_6.66

The auditory journey begins by plunging you into a cold and strange universe, a mysterious place where the imagination begins to take over the senses. Let the boundaries of reality fade and enter the dark forest.

SOUNDSCAPE - Purgatory XP_6.77

Open your eyes: you are somewhere else, you are on the threshold of an intermediate and labyrinthine place. Behind the roaring layers and the heavy volutes of sound, one can however glimpse a glimmer. Fragmented notes of a lonely piano mingle with the ambient sounds and reveal a path through the misty landscape;

PAYSAGE SONORE - Paradis GN_7.77

Laissez vous guider par cette composition mélodieuse et sonore plus douce vers un espoir de renouveau, vers un lieu plus léger.  Le voyage se poursuit dans une ambiance douce, et invite à une méditation profonde. Rentrez en harmonie avec les oiseaux et leurs chants oniriques. Tendez l’oreille ; au loin, la béatitude résonne.

 

THUMBNAILS

Trans_Human_Art est un voyage intiatique à travers un univers étrange et labyrinthique ; ce voyage s’expérience sur un temps long, épique.

 

Les vignettes sont des fenêtres, des aperçus du périple, des instants fugitifs. Les vignettes allient la spatialisation sonore à la multiprojection visuelle pour immerger le public dans ces moments éphémères.

 

Les images sont issues d’un tournage en nature, dans les Cévennes. Il s’agit de repousser — ou même de faire disparaître les murs du théâtre pour y faire entrer la forêt, le ciel, les rivières, les grottes dans le théâtre.

CONCERT IMMERSIF

In the evening, enjoy an unforgettable musical experience: the first immersive concert of the Théâtre du Temps. Dive into the dance beat of Lentiks ' spatialized set in the first part . Then, immerse yourself in the Dantesque universe of EDN_prelude , an excerpt from Trans_Human_Art , the hybrid creation of Mickaël Sabbah in residence at the Théâtre du Temps.

Lentiks is a newcomer to the French electro scene.

He weaves into his compositions a danceable and radiant pop, whose surprising contrasts paint a colorful universe, where solar synths rub shoulders with darker layers.

His style reveals his influences (l'Impératrice, Parcels, FKJ, Daft Punk) but nevertheless surprises with a resolutely personal and authentic style. Neither retro nor futuristic, Lentiks offers the time of a set, an experience of pure immanence.

Trans_Human_Art is an interdisciplinary musical project by Mickaël Sabbah that questions the vicious circle of human violence against human beings by creating a dialogue between Dante's Divine Comedy and poetic fragments and historical testimonies.

Part investigation, part anthropological tale, and part spectacular concert, THA is being experimented with in the form of a theatrical series, divided into seasons and episodes.

On November 24, come and discover EDN_prelude, an excerpt from the third season: EDN_7.77, Paradise.

EDN_prélude est une expérience musicale du voyage du protagoniste de THA.

Progression immersive et contemplation extensive sur le plan musical sont les maîtres-mots caractérisant la première partie de ce fragment issu des répétitions du Paradis.

La gente évolution du morceau tissé en fond de toile nous mène au sein d’une atmosphère emplie de tendresse.

 

Les différentes touches de synthétiseur se mêlent les unes aux autres, en toute délicatesse. Lorsque les rythmes légers arrivent doucement, le paysage sonore se prête alors à une pure allégresse.
