INCENDIES by d'incise
"Incendies" is a piece that sings the jolts of a world on battery.
Just as we watch a fire with fascination, its beauty and its destructive force at the same time, one can listen to analog signals enriched with saturations and give birth to the space created inside a stereophony. Or meditate on the carbon footprint of the same action.
And for your information: the number of megafires will increase by 30% by 2050 (according to a report by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) which also denounces noise pollution in cities as a growing danger to public health).

The piece is based on analog signals, recorded over and over through various circuits (filters mostly) in order to create subtles stereo differences, mouvements and depthes. The music breath to its own puslation, always slightly off-the-grid, saturations and hisses act on the expressive and dramatic level.
