The Allography machine
Architectural and music computational models have profoundly affected the ways we describe, interpret and evaluate existing architectural and musical works as well as the ways we design new works in both domains. Two aspects of these computational…
Out of the Flames
A sonic inquiry into the multi-faceted, poly-temporal relationship between improvisation and composition. Solo Bass Clarinet perfrmances and discussions: Out of the Flames (Lori Freedman, 2016) and The Library on Fire (Paul Steenhuisen, 2015).
The Sound of These Waves
Presentation of the complete film "the Sound of these Waves" by David Lieberman, first presented in Rouen during the Continuum conference there in November 2015.
Granulation and layering: Xenakis's Polytopes and Moholy Nagy's Light-Space Modulator
This paper looks at how sound, light and shadow performances could be achieved by the method of granulation and layering as demonstrated by the work of Iannis Xenakis and Laszlo Moholy Nagy. The similarities as well as the differences in the two…
Researching the Philosophy, Music, and Being of Xenakis’ Work from the I Ching Perspective
In 1991, a stochastic music piece called Gendy3 was produced entirely by a computer program written by the composer Iannis Xenakis at CEMAMu. In his words, Xenakis asked "What is a composer? A thinker and plastic artist who expresses himself through…
The genesis of structure: A narrative description of F. Romitelli’s Yellow, Green and Blue
In this paper I will present an analysis of Fausto Romitelli’s piece Yellow, Green and Blue aiming for the realization of the driving forces that forge the structural shape of the piece. I will primarily focus on selected concepts and ideas that…
Musico-Spatial Design Research within the Continuum of Performance, Practice and the Academy
The presentation brings together reflections on the continuum of Performance, Practice and the Academy that aims to address the wider interdisciplinary intentions of Iannis Xenakis. We reflect on the musical and spatial design synergies generated…
Sound and Homeomorphisms
There is a superficial, and yet fundamental paradox at the core of Xenakis' work: whilst being the creator of atomised sound (granular synthesis) he was also preoccupied with sound's continuity; or later on his career, while he openly promoted the…
Reinventing the sense of continuity in urban structure through pauses
At first glance, the modern city constitutes a continuing united system in space-time. Roads, buildings, open spaces comprise the idea of urban structure into an interwoven system. On second thought, contemporary cities are seen as townscapes…
Andrew Norman's The Companion Guide to Rome: Influence of Architecture and Visual Art on Composition
Diakopès: historicizing continuum in the work of Iannis Xenakis
A later work (1966), the holiday house Xenakis designed for a musician, his friend F.B. Mâche, the only work realized in Greece (Xenakis and...Plato’s homeland), does not seem to exhibit the Pavilion's formal continuity: arranged in five independent…
The Polytope of Mycenae (1978) / I. Xenakis: structuring the space of the past through a futuristic architectonic approach
In 1978 Xenakis created at the Acropolis of Mycenae a unique event -in multiple places (polytopon)- a participatory art spectacle for the masses with music and poetry, audiovisual effects, soundscapes with human and animal voices and bells with…
The plasticity of pitch phenomena in electronic music
Keynote et conférence donnée dans les cadre del' Université de toutes les cultures de l'Université de Rouen
Pitch is an intrinsically fascinating phenomenon. Words fail to describe the emotional impact of a beautiful melody, harmonic progression,…

Dans cette présentation, je vais tâcher de résumer quelques idées développées au fil des
années, à partir de mon travail en tant que compositeur, concernant une approche multiéchelle

Continuums, espaces-temps, transitivité
Que le son résulte de sources matérielles ou qu’il soit généré par des machines, Xenakis met en valeur « l’engendrement de l’inengendré » et les potentialités transformatives à l’œuvre dans la musique. Le son est événement, énergie, matière en…
Well, I say you are already ‘Layereding’
If layering is an arrangement which allows not only the navigation within any one of the layers and the navigation through different layers but also the creation of new layers in the form of assemblages, the components of which are entities…
De l’imaginaire musical créatif à sa conversion dans un macro-timbre continu-discontinu proche de la réalité
Keynote
La recherche de nouvelles reponses théoriques implique ici une exigence : laisser en déhors les langages musicaux – ainsi que leurs codifications – pour nous rapprocher d’une substance essentielle en création musicale, la perception des…

Composer dans le continuum : fréquence, temps, timbre, espace
In this text, I explore the sonic inter-relations between space, time and timbre. The physical structure and the psycho-acoustical perception of these 3 dimensions of sound are inter-connected, and ,thus, are on a common psycho-physical continuum.…
La relation continu/discontinu dans l’oeuvre de Iannis Xenakis
La conception musicale de Xenakis est fondée sur un recours à des notions abstraites ayant une portée très générale. Ces notions forment souvent des dualités de termes opposés : déterminisme/ indéterminisme, homogénéité/ hétérogénéité, ordre/…
Le continuum en musique : les réseaux d’un concept connectif
Le mot continuum est apparu régulièrement dans les travaux scientifiques au début des années 1920 (notamment dans le langage des physiciens) en tant qu’ensemble d’éléments disposés de telle manière que l’on puisse passer de l’un à l’autre de façon…
Du territoire à l’oeuvre, et retour : pour une approche musicale du territoire sonore
Parmi les nombreuses voies explorées par Xenakis, tant en musique qu’en architecture, la notion de continuum est centrale, liée aux sources de sa pensée autant qu’à sa recherche formelle – sans négliger, bien entendu, les nombreuses rencontres qui…
