Two Hundred Questions
A collective acoustic reflection on the future
ENSEMBLE RESAUVAGE
Daniel Fischlin / Lewis Melville / Erwan Noblet
Recorded as part of the Feedback Loop installation hosted at Silence (Guelph) in April 2022, Two Hundred Questions is an analog soundscape and sonic rewilding based on an improvised conversation among multi-instrumentalists Daniel Fischlin, Lewis Melville, and Erwan Noblet (Ensemble Resauvage).
Disturbing tones, unexpected convergences, and protolinguistic sounds mingle with questions from different generations of people, echoing the perplexity of an uncertain future.
Is art the history of a future yet to be made?
What might the future mean?
Recorded live at Silence (Guelph), Sunday, March 7, 2022.
