| Pierre Jolivet originally from Paris, is an artist who's currently based in Dublin, Ireland. Pierre started as a French pioneer, under the moniker of Pacific 231, in the industrial / power electronics musical fields before moving into more ambient and abstract sounds. His works now explores the very limit of sound and space, especially through his new multimedia performances: Stif(f)le and Im'shi. In 2010, he became part of the Luigi Russolo jury, a prestigious international award in acousmatic music created in 1979 by Gian Franco Maffina and Rossana Maggia with the participation of François Bayle and Pierre Schaeffer. Currently, he's teaching multimedia at University College Dublin and started a PhD in Brainwave & Sensorial Perception (UCD SMARTlab). |
| Sensorial Perception - Research in Sound Art: to investigate and provide extensive biofeedback exploration using multi-channels and non-intrusive sensors to unveil perceptual aspects from auditory interactions. To better characterise sensory feedback, a quantitative data set based on a comprehensive creative sequence will have to be generated and explored. It is to form the context for an analysis of a cluster of case studies from a broad panel of test subjects. Pierre Schaeffer developed a sound theory with musique concrète, in the late forties, toward a better understanding of non-traditional musical forms and David Rosenboom at the Laboratory of Experimental Aesthetic (York University, Toronto) undertook some interesting experimentations using introspective electroencephalographs and multimedia in the mid-seventies. The intended outcome is to develop a new method for compositional processes to deliver a new and novel set of techniques for sound artists to induce a rich and novel sensorial dimension. The new notation will introduce an educational framework and a new basis for research and design in such fields as far as acoustics and architecture.
