Informal Artist Talk
with Richard Chartier at 7:30 pm on November 17 (free).

Immerson 2 is a concert event/philosophy initiated by France Jobin which proposes to create a listening environment dedicated to an enhanced experience by focusing on the physical comfort of the audience through a specifically designed space. The premise for Immerson 2 is to seek out/explore new perceptions and experiences of the listening process by pushing the notion of “immersion” to its limits. A consuming evening of minimal sound art in which both artists and audience are drawn into the same heights and depths of the sonic/emotional spectrum. This sound art is felt as well as heard.

Monique Jean

Monique Jean lives and works in Montreal. An electroacoustic and sound artist, she is interested in the tensions, ruptures and clashes of sonic matter that produce a transmutation of the real into the poetic. This search for an organic substance takes various forms: stereo or multitrack electroacoustic pieces, musique mixte with live processing, sound installation (Point d’attaches ou les infidélités rotatives) and performance with the Theresa Transistor collective.
