Pierre Girardin – Have you ever had an acoustic dream ?

with Ludovic Balland, Gilles Gavillet

Have You Ever Had an Acoustic Dream ? My book is based on the studies of R. Murray Schafer, who invented the notion of soundscape in the seventies. I started by doing some of his listening exercises in different environments and then decided to use binary possibilities to create a form of concrete visual soundscape. A website is dedicated to the project, where we can listen these landscapes www.haveyoueverhadanacousticdream.com

GRAPHIC DESIGN

Calendar ECAL 2012

with Maximage, Körner Union, Tatiana Rihs

This 2012 calendar is made of photograms directly composed on offset plates. This unusual and experimental technique allows to print perfect fades without using any raster. Objects, things and animals were selected and arranged by students, during a workshop held at ECAL by Körner Union, Maximage and T. Rihs, assisted by Olga Prader.
