Label: Swarming - 013

1991年から活動を続けているサウンドアート系の大ベテランEric La Casaが盟友達と立ち上げたレーベルSwarmingの2020年新作。約1年半ぶりとなる久々の出版作であり、今回は150x150の8ページブックレットとCDが一体となったEric La Casaの完全ソロ作。地元パリでは屋外より屋内で過ごす事が多いらしく、アパート、お店、地下鉄、カフェ、図書館、映画館などで採集した"個人的生態系"を構成しているという屋内環境音集。何年にも渡り空間のサウンドを探求してきただけあって、捉える音とその耳の良さに唯圧倒されます。

I spend more time inside than outside.
In Paris, my existence is organised in the interior volumes of anthropocentric architecture: the apartment, the shop, the Métro, the café, the library, the cinema, etc. I spend more time indoors than outdoors. All the buildings I frequent constitute my personal ecosystem of the city, a world in itself. Sheltered, maybe even removed from the outside world, each architectural space encloses, on a small human scale, a part of reality. What is this reality made of, this reality that conditions my life inside? What relationships do I have with this reality, with these interior environments?
I examine this interior world, its materiality, its acoustics, its furniture, its inhabitants, and so forth. Over the years, my exploration of the fullness and emptiness of these spaces has led me ever further into the liminal sonic dimension of everyday life. From the overt to the inaudible, I experiment with its dimensions, repel its indeterminacy.
