Cycle of Interventions in Casa Victoria Ocampo.
Sound compositions produced on the basis of the architectures inhabited by Cristian Chironi within the framework of the project My House is a Le Corbusier:
- (Esprit Nouveau), Bologna, Francesco Brasini, 30m 8s
The measures of length, height and width of the Pavilion of the Esprit Nouveau in Bologna through sinusoidal waves are converted into sound.
- (Studio-Apartment), Paris, Le Choeur de Radio France / Brasini / Chironi, 23m 56s
Live performance by members of "Le Choeur de Radio France" (in Le Corbusier's studio-apartment in Paris) who perform chorally a score obtained by converting the measurements of the room into frequencies, and then into musical notes.
- (Unitè d'Habitation), Marseille, Massimo Carozzi, B5.N 43° 17' 3.389'' E 5° 22' 21.727'', 4m 14s
Sound recording obtained inside the Cathedral of Notre Dame of Marseille
- (Unitè d'Habitation), Marseille, Alessandro Bosetti, Xenakis non ha mangiato nulla, 16m 06s
The work arises from an unprecedented fragment of the recording of a dinner between Alessandro Bosetti, Cristian Chironi and the ghost of the Greek composer-architect Iannis Xenakis, who collaborated with Le Corbusier by applying mainly musical materials to architectural concepts they developed together. The dinner took place in the kitchen of department 50 of the Unité d'Habitation de Marseille: fragments of Xenakis' compositions are modulated on the dialogue between the two participants.
- (Casa Curutchet), La Plata, Francesco Brasini / Cristian Chironi, Silent Tango, durata 17m 04s
Two couples of dancers from the Casa del Tango Gardel in La Plata listen to music through headphones as they record their steps on the floor, transforming the Casa Curutchet room into an amplified box.
- (Casa Curutchet), La Plata, Francesco Brasini / Cristian Chironi, "Studio per la contemplazione immaginaria di uno spazio all'interno di Casa Cuructchet", 23m 54s
Individual note sessions of a saxophone recorded by Chironi during his residence at Casa Curutchet, and re-assembled by Brasini to generate a sound continuum that propagates inside an environment: as a result, the place takes on a kind of contemplative form where a perimeter defined by the listener is simultaneously delimited.
- (Pierre Jeanneret Museum), Chandigarh, Daniela Cattivelli / Cristian Chironi, Clacson, 11m 14s
Daniela Cattivelli edits some sound fragments recorded by Chironi during his residence in Chandigarh in the framework of the project My House is a Le Corbusier, filtering them with a voice coder that generates other frequencies leaving the original sound on the surface.
- (Pierre Jeanneret Museum), Chandigarh, Domenique Vaccaro / Cristian Chironi, Chandigarh Swing, 16m 20s
Electroacoustic composition by Dominique Vaccaro based on the space-time repositioning of sound recordings and fragments of field recordings collected by Chironi during his residence in Chandigarh in the framework of the project My House is a Le Corbusier.
