2012

A CAC 40 mandate (2007-2012). Performance

Performance on March 24, 2012 at Lieu Unique in Nantes, as part of an evening of concerts opening the Locus Sonus symposium at the École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Nantes. The piece is based on the principle of the Stock Exchange Pieces and consists in the transposition in sinusoidal frequencies of all the values of the CAC 40 during the mandate of Nicolas Sarkozy, then president of the French Republic in campaign for his re-election. The duration of the performance is calculated according to the ratio of one year of stock market trading for one minute of concert.
