IRCAM «Espro room» Paris
The «espro» room is an acoustic room that is partly variable to the IRCAM underground complex. It is a center of research, technological innovation and musical creation created in 1969 at the request of George Pompidou. This building is located in front of the Pompidou center, mainly underground, to protect the outside noise.
The study room can be used as a concert hall, recording studio and acoustic experimentation site thanks to its variable acoustic qualities.
The specificity of the room rests on walls composed of prismatic modules with three faces called pericles.
BERNARD LEITNER Ton-Röhre
Bernhard Leitner, architect, sculptor and musician, has been focusing since the late 1960s on the close relationship between sound, space and body.
He made artistic installations, all usable and accessible.
He conceives real spaces thanks to sounds with a work based on an artistic approach of the physical and acoustic analysis of spaces formed exclusively by sound.
It creates a sound that delimits a space and provides a path. Spaces that can not be visually fixed and that are not perceptible from the outside, audible spaces that can be felt with the whole body.
