OPUS de TRAVERS


Nine Sound Architectures
Dominique Barthassat


SOUND KALEIDOSCOPE
Sound Architecture no. 1 with 16 sonic beams
Steam Train Depot Museum, Val de Travers - Saint-Sulpice
A constant alternation of sculpted sounds immerse us in an amazing acoustic and musical kaleidescope.


SOUND SERPENT
Sound Architecture no. 2 with 4 sonic beams
Val de Travers steam train - Saint-Sulpice
Sounds curve in and out like a serpent and cut across the landscape.


SOUND PORTAL AND SOUND WELL
Sound Architecture no. 3, with 4 sonic beams
Hydraulic power station at the Ecomuseum - Saint-Sulpice
A dialogue, sprinkled with splashes of sound between the "Sound Portal" and the "Acoustic Well".


SOUND SCREEN
Sound Architecture no. 4, with 6 sonic beams
Cirque Rocheux (Source of the Areuse) - Saint-Sulpice
A subtle Sound Screen allows us to glimpse reflections of sound on water.


SOUND ELIXIR
Sound Architecture no. 5, with 10 sonic beams
Absinthe Drying Shed - Boveresse
The crystal sounds of the sound elixir blend into multiple tracks and audio circumlocutions that give a sense of the fourth dimension of acoustic space.


SOUND UMBRELLA
Sound Architecture no. 6, with 2 sonic beams
The Tower of Croton - Château de Môtiers - Môtiers
Sound shards given off by the sound umbrella swirl and melt into the landscapes and move with our gaze...


SOUND OSCILLOSCOPE
Sound Architecture no. 7, with 4 sonic beams
Industrial Museum - La Presta - Travers
Subtle sounds jump, then twirl, like an oscilloscope, sprinkled with clicking sounds…


SOUND BEAM
Sound Architecture no. 8, with 2 sonic beams
Asphalt Mine museum - La Presta - Travers
Listening to sound beams directed towards the ground, evokes the "voyage to the centre of the earth"...


SOUND CORE
Sound Architecture no. 9, with 2 sonic beams
Asphalt Mine - La Presta - Travers
Sound bubbles and craters surrounded by gentle musical sound shapes transport us to the heart of the earth's core...
