Edition 2022 - Bright Brussels

Frequences - Rencontres Audiovisuelles

This 5-minute video mapping on the facade of the Maison de la Radio is a fresco of sounds that explores the various aspects of radio broadcasting.

It is made up of three movements: the first symbolises the start of the broadcast, with the signal crackling and the beats gradually taking shape. This abstract sound material is materialised on the building through waves and lines. The second movement enriches the fresco with figurative sound matter: voices and music emerge, they blend and disrupt each other, and they merge into a chaotic whole. The image follows this chaos, with organic shapes appearing and disappearing. The third movement is built around clear sounds and ends in a musical climax. All these elements come together in a harmonious, masterful piece of mapping art.
