For percussion, video and electronics
Split-screen Canons is a transdisciplinary piece imagined by Sébastien Roux.
The piece involves a compositional system where the musical score becomes a split-screen film that is arranged in real time. The piece takes its origin in electronic canons written by Sébastien Roux for the GRM and initiated at the GMEM(10 Canons de Vuza, 2018) and which serve as a basis for the research of sound materials for percussion.
The canons are so-called Vuza canons. They are rhythmic canons that have two specificities: the different voices of the canon never overlap and once all the voices have entered, all the beats are occupied. All the voices are played successively by the performer, each one is recorded (audio and video), and superimposed on the previous ones. The fxe shot on the hands of the percussionist playing is multiplied.
The canon builds up, the voices accumulate and complete each other, the split-screen fills up until the whole projection space is occupied by a fllm.

Sébastien Roux
sound artist
Sébastien Roux (1977) imagines listening situations. Through the algorithm, the game, the movement, the spatialization, the diagram, he articulates two complementary notions: the perception of the form and the forms of perception. His work takes various forms: commented listening sessions with loudspeakers, concerts with projection of graphic scores, sound installations, in situ performances. He is a graduate of the Master Atiam (IRCAM), a multidisciplinary training in music sciences.

Stéphane Garin
artist
Interpretation, improvisation, composition, curation... Because a musician of the 21st century must be able to combine all these practices, Stéphane Garin has chosen not to choose.
When he is not playing with the Dedalus ensemble, it may be that he is playing with some pillar of the electronic scene (Ryoji Ikeda, Stephan Mathieu) or with a singer (Claire Diterzi). Or a performance in Detroit with the Shua Group, or an artist of the most protean like Pascal Comelade. But perhaps it is also that he is somewhere with 0 (www.ensemble0.com), the ensemble he co-founded in 2004 with Sylvain Chauveau. A collective with variable geometry (and geography), which puts as much heart into defending the works of American artists (Moondog, John Cage, Julius Eastman, Arthur Russel, Tristan Perich, Michael Pisaro) as it does into playing its own compositions.
In all these activities, as in the listening sessions he regularly leads, it is not so much a question of "diffusion" in the institutional sense of the term as of sharing, in the most fraternal sense of the term. Of listening moments lived together, sound experiences in short or global circuit, of circulations - between traditions (written and oral) as well as between generations, between the learned and the popular, instrumental practice and phonography, acoustics and electronics, yesterday and today - which are the best guarantors of a true exchange. An enlarged conception, in short, of musicality. (David Sanson)

Jérome Tuncer
sound artist
After studying engineering at the INSA in Lyon and the sound program at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure Louis Lumière, Jérôme Tuncer devoted himself to sound creation, design and programming of interactive devices for live shows, performances and installations. He enriches his technical mastery by participating in the life of places such as the IRCAM, the GRM or the Gaîté Lyrique on creation projects or during educational workshops to raise awareness of the digital tool of sound and image processing. He collaborates with many artists of the contemporary landscape to whom he brings a sensitive approach to current sound, visual and computer techniques (collaborations : Jean-François Peyret, Ludovic Lagarde, Ensemble Multilatérale, Georges Aperghis, Sébastien Roux, Célia Houdart, Jacques André, Magali Desbazeille, Moritz von Oswald, Sylvain Prunenec, Lionel Hoche, Affari Esteri company, Daniel Larrieu...).
