"Gad Gad Vazo Gadati,
Voicing Through Saussure"


CD, éditions héros-limite, 2004

"Voiser ˆ travers Saussure ? Les premires recherches de Ferdinand de Saussure, linguiste genevois de la fin du XIXe sicle, sur le systme vocalique des langues indo-europŽennes, continuŽes ensuite vers une phonologie gŽnŽrale, le situent historiquement aux fondements de la linguistique contemporaine. Son influence dans le dŽveloppement des sciences humaines fut capitale. Il existe aussi chez Saussure une dimension poŽtique qu'il reste ˆ mettre ˆ jour : la matire mme de la voix, envisagŽe comme composante premire de l'acte crŽatif (Saussure lui-mme, dans ses recherches restŽes longtemps cachŽes - ses anagrammes - s'acharnait ˆ trouver des correspondances sonores dans la poŽsie ancienne). gad gad vazo gadati, voicing through saussure reprend au mot le programme saussurien comme proposition poŽtique gŽnŽrale. Les sonoritŽs des langues analysŽes dans le plus grand dŽtail par le linguiste, sanskrit, perse ancien, gothique, lituanien, slavon, ancien franais, latin, grecÉ ces sonoritŽs thŽoriques, dont la dŽcomposition devait aider ˆ remonter jusqu'ˆ la langue mre, sont retournŽes, agencŽes, recomposŽes en une trame poŽtique dŽployŽe dans ses dimensions les plus concrtes."

John Driscoll
"Wafer Flats"


CS, Edition Giannozzo Berlin, 1986

"Wafer Flats (1985) was made while a guest of the DAAD Berliner Kuenstlerprogramm. 
This sound installation was created for the Galerie Giannozzo space. It used a number 
of sculptural loudspeakers (which directly vibrate sound into objects), acoustic lenses, 
a rotating loudspeaker, and a convential loudspeaker located in the cellar. The vibrating 
speakers included 2 fishing poles, 6m. and 7m. long, the front window of the gallery, 
and a plastic jug. The robotic rotating loudspeaker was designed by John Driscoll and 
Peter Labiak. The sound material was created both electronically and acoustically, 
using unique ultrasonic and electronic instruments by John Driscoll."

Bertrand Denzler Cluster ‎
"Y?"


CD, Leo Lab, 2000

The kind of not-too-wild free jazz album that has just
enough standard modality to play for unsuspecting diner
guests with out them turning their noses up. Maybe...
