[Microsound-announce] Rabelais / Mathieu - new DVD-R on con-v

[conv]

Conv is very proud to present this audiovisual
collaboration between Akira Rabelais (video) and
Stephan Mathieu (audio)
in a strictly limited edtion of 100 numbered copies:

As with all of Rabelais' oeuvre, this one is again a
deep, fundamental semiotic intrigue - or rather, an
indeterable rumble with Aporia; a looking-glass tumble
down a dead-end street; a non-stop magic-lantern show
with the epic dimensions of the platonic cave-parabel
(or of a non-stop erotic cinema program). With only
the poet's initiatory words for sustenance one steps
into the looking glass - the empty frame - to fall
smack in the realm of the blind, unyielding and
uni-directional 'drone' of life (whether lived or
googled is of no essential consequence within this
realm of existence). This movement though is but the
substratum of a gentler phenomenology introduced by
Mathieu's vibrant search for the minute detail, for
the ghost in the machine, adding a new sense of
perspective: a sense of the gradual calibration of the
moved to the mover. The alien mechanics perpetuating
the weaving-loom finally become instances of encounter
with oneself - not as in a looking glass, but in an
experience of unreflected recognition. [ liner notes
