Espaces sonores is a collection of interactive installations on show organized by the Shadok, SaxOpen, and Strasbourg University as part of the World Saxophone Congress 2015.
The digital era has given rise to many important trends, with some of the most prominent among them focusing on ideas of networks, participation and the convergence of media. The interactive arts draw very widely on these ideas in order to appropriate new fields of investigation and expression.
The Espaces sonores exhibition highlights this interactive approach and invites the public to take part in the creative process: trigger a sound by a mere physical presence, and then modify it with a gesture; enter into and transform the sonic texture using installation-instruments, touch-screen scores and other unusual interfaces.
