Through three works by Jimmie LeBlanc focused on the experiential nature of music, Paramirabo delivers an immersive and innovative musical concert.

… and the Flesh made Word, a textural exploration where the sonic material is designed more tactilely than discursively, using the formant structures of French vowels as a harmonic model.

Clamors of Being, the second part of the diptych, deepens the composition by closely connecting to matter, considering it as a cosmic movement, personified yet animated by a vital breath.

Ice is an audiovisual installation designed in collaboration with the artist Fareena Chanda and physicist Stephen Morris. It is inspired by the silent formation of ice cubes, aiming to capture the beauty and violence of the water-to-ice transformation process. The musical composition evolves as the visual textures change, engaging the body and mind in an experience where the seemingly ordinary natural phenomenon is magnified through the haptic mode.

This event promises a unique audiovisual exploration between music, nature, and technology, where inner and outer worlds come together to resonate and vibrate with their collisions.
