Gregory Robin (Fr)

Vessels questions what moves us and takes us beyond, towards the informal and the invisible. The music is performed live from a device combining analog synthesizers, Revox recorder, filters, effects and computers. It oscillates between electronic and electroacoustic music. Sounds from different sources (singing or spoken voice, concrete sounds, sounds made on the South Port of France Sète) are processed, multiply distributed and mixed with analog sounds. Robin Gregory carried out the shooting on the Opal Coast (North of France). All captured images are mounted in reverse and trouble the way we look at our surroundings. Annabelle Playe works with video like it is sound composition: repetition of a pattern, developments, ruptures and continuity, variations and nuances. A dynamic montage of dialogue images with the music in a contrapuntal manner. Sometimes the image is erased to make room for music.
