Oscillation Bulletin ::: Final Episode

Dear post-oscillation ::: o tempo generation,

As we’re writing this, six students from both the Université Laval Quebec and RITCS are working on their new sound pieces in the Q-O2 HQ, creating an unsuspected pleasant sonic background for writing this last [removed];The future waits just around the office’s corner, while at the same time the echoes of past weekend still reverberate through our [removed];This fifth edition will undoubtedly stand the test of time: countless gripping performances, workshops, talks, hangouts, unsuspected gatherings, … a dream edition it has been. But what might linger on longest in our ever time-sensitive thoughts might be the micro-community we’ve been part of last weekend. A microcosmos of artists, partners (special thanks to Pieter and Maarten and the rest of the Needcompany team, Gert and the HISK crew, Père Stefano, and Charlemagne Palestine for his grandiose finale!), volunteers, interns (Sara, Marius, Han <3) and the audience that created the perfect circumstances for our celebration of sound. Time was on our side.

Head in the clouds, our hearts – the warmest,

The Oscillation Crew

The six artists will present in a performative way some games, songs or media constructions which relate to their respective languages, their friendship and translations.
Above all, they try to meet and play in the middle of those newly established communications, which they try to continually remake in order to keep fooling around and pay attention to their shared discoveries.
