« La droite et la gauche se divisent, découvrent une faille
— une passe ? —
et la faille s’ouvre, crie

Le silence qui sort d’ici, plus qu’une humeur est un mouvement

Mouvement d’eau, mouvements d’air

Un autre lieu

Du temps sur du temps
de la matière sur la matière se métamorphosant pour accueillir le paradoxe d’une chaleur immobile

L’espace révélé, en ces instants, attise une flamme

L’expérience — à quel type d’illusion appartient-elle ? —
est-elle à chaque fois reliée à un fond identique qui lui insufflerait de quoi survivre
et revenir

Ou bien cette entrevue serait-elle la coïncidence, l’instant d’un éclair
avec le flux du monde ? »

-

« A direita e a esquerda dividem-se, revelam uma falha
- uma passagem? -
e a fenda abre-se, grita

O silêncio que sai dela, mais do que um ânimo é um movimento

Movimento de água, movimento de ar

Um outro lugar

Do tempo sobre o tempo
Da matéria sobre a matéria metamorfoseando-se para acolher o paradoxo dum calor imóvel

O espaço revelado, nesses instantes, atiça uma chama

A experiência - a que tipo de ilusão ela pertence? –
estará ela sempre ligada a um fundo idêntico que lhe insuflaria do quê sobreviver
e regressar

Ou será esse encontro a coincidência, o instante de um relâmpago
com o fluxo do mundo?  »

------------------


Lionel Marchetti is a French composer of concrete music
an improviser (electronics, various analogic systems with modified speakers, REVOX reel-to-reel recorder…)
as well as a visual-sound artist, a writer and a poet

Whether his music is composed or improvised
the body has an important role (Lionel Marchetti danced with the university company Relyanse between 1986 and 1991)

To define his music, one can borrow Kenneth White’s saying :

« Concrete or abstract ?
I like abstraction where a memory of substance remains, concrete refined on the frontiers of emptiness. »
