Eric La Casa & Jean-Luc Guionnet - Inscape. Lille-Flanders

INSCAPE is, for us, a sort of umbrella name, bringing
together various ideas and projects based in and around the
real-time capture of audio/visual material.
Although comparable with techniques used in the
audiovisual surveillance of a specific site, surveillance itself
isn't the goal of the project. The site, the place, the
environment are heard for what they are, without the prior
discrimination of considered attention. A sonic form is
inferred, or formed, from the constituent parts, in order to
bring about a musicality that is unpredictable yet controlled.
This technical approach can be adapted to all types of places,
without limit and regardless of the resources that might be
available. The set-up itself is a primary consideration of the
project since everything is conceived in situ. Nothing is
decided beforehand even if Inscape's broad principles
can be set out, reasonably straightforwardly, as 'a
system for the surveillance of a site based on available
audio and visual resources (microphones, contact mics,
cameras etc…).
On site, to create an installation or a concert, the setting
will be developped during few days (from 2 to 5 days). The
extent of the interface will be function of this site specific
device, the technical support, etc…
Whether in a concert or installation context, Inscape
create, in an hour or over the course of a number of
weeks, audiovisual projects which link the inherent
properties of a specific place with the producers'
aesthetic concerns.
INSCAPE = “everything in real time !”
