Family Listening Session - Formati 3
In the framework of the exhibition « état bruit »
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.
