non v’è chi non veda le affinità tra Villa e Bene. a partire dal corretto vocabolo impiegabile per una precisa descrizione delle operazioni villiane: “atto”.

 

“asemic sound cycles” by félix-antoine morin [& other/older performances]

Asemic Sound Cycles at Galeri Salihara
April 10, 2022 – April 24, 2022

Asemic Sound Cycles (2022), by Félix-Antoine Morin, is an exhibition specially developed for the Salihara Arts Center (Jakarta, Indonesia). This exhibition consists of a series of graphic scores on polyester film as well as a sound installation in the center of the exhibition space.

Asemic Sound Cycles consists of a series of graphic scores on polyester film as well as a sound installation in the center of the Salihara Gallery.

Félix-Antoine Morin’s graphic scores represent existing musical forms whose basic structures are drawn from his repertoire of compositions. By this process, Morin maps out the metamorphosis of sound phenomena through a rhythmic and poetic graphic expression. He encourages the ambiguity between musical notation and pure pictorial symbolism.

The kinetic sound installation arranged in the center of the space is inspired by the “locked groove” technique, an expression invented by Pierre Schaeffer in the mid 20th century to describe this phenomenon in which the needle of a record player falls indefinitely in the same record groove. In the same way, this sound installation follows a unique circular route. This consists of a microphone that reacts like the needle of a record player on materials and textures arranged throughout the floor.

Félix-Antoine Morin’s graphic scores represent existing musical forms whose basic structures are drawn from his repertoire of compositions. Through a syncopated visual construction, by which he instinctively creates new connections between signs, he shifts the initial writing toward material abstraction. Preserving traces of the sound origin, the accumulation of elements gradually transforms each composition into an autonomous language that no longer references music.
By this process, Morin maps out the … [click to read more]

First solo exhibition of Félix-Antoin Morin in Turkey: Asemic Sound Mappings (Feb 19th – Mar 12th, 2022):

[…] The graphic language of the artist does not tend to have a fixed meaning, leaving the interpretation of the works free to the viewer, encouraging the ambiguity between musical notation and pure pictorial poetry. The artworks at the “Asemic Sound Mappings” exhibition display layered elements moving in the void, carrying rhythm to the surface by simultaneously expressing Morin’s musical and pictorial sensibilities […]

il discorso non appartiene mai all’essere parlante: i “fondamentali” (cb)

Tutta la poesia e le scritture di secondo Novecento e attuali hanno anzi avrebbero o avrebbero avuto (troppo tardi ormai) da imparare da queste righe:

La cosa gravissima e per me impensabile è che l’attorume moderno e post-moderno non solo vi perseveri ma non degni di uno sguardo il Corso di linguistica generale di Saussure. Chiaramente, certe considerazioni sono vocazioni. Ma, in assenza di questo, almeno uno sguardo per decenza… controllare qualcosina in Freud e in Lacan soprattutto. “Il discorso non appartiene mai all’essere parlante”. Sono i “fondamentali”.
Quelli invece vanno lassù e parlano, convinti che il discorso appartenga loro, addirittura ne fanno un prodigio mnemonico, da mentecatti, neurodeliri, croce verde. Nessuna delle loro cementate teste è stata mai ventilata dal dubbio atroce: altrimenti si sarebbero dimessi comunque. Dimettersi come Io parlante. La voce non è il dire, è l’ascolto. C’è un dir la voce, la voce non dice mai qualcosa. La simulazione: niente a che fare con la perversità della contraffazione. Si schiaffeggiano, urlano, si insultano, becerano. Mera pigrizia. Menzogna degradata.
