Family Listening Session - Formati 3

In the framework of the exhibition « état bruit »

Deze inhoud is helaas niet in het Nederlands beschikbaar.

Format 3 is an ongoing body of work by Danish artists Louise Foo and Martha Skou (FOO/SKOU) that explores how sound can be experienced across visual, physical, and virtual material.

At the center of the work is a graphic score composed of eighty-one symbols forming a musical alphabet. Using a custom app and spatial interfaces, visitors can activate the shapes to trigger tones, samples, and synthesis, transforming visual notation into a playable sound environment. The work draws on traditions of experimental music and graphic notation while extending them into spatial, tactile, and contemporary forms.

In this live performance, Foo and Skou draw on their intimate knowledge of the Format 3 alphabet, exhibited in relation to the exhibition, to create an improvised 15-minute soundscape. Using cut-out symbols, a live camera, and custom software as musical interfaces, the artists collaborate to activate tones, samples, and synthesis in real time, while projecting the visual score onto the wall, creating a synaesthetic experience. The performance transforms the graphic symbols into a dynamic musical environment, allowing audiences to experience sound as a visual, tactile, and performative material.
