Alva Noto takes over Espace SAT with a performance of HYBR:ID UNI PARA, an exploratory journey through the intricacies of light, sound, and human perception. Myriam Bleau presents Hypermobility, a lucid rendering of movement over distance and time.

A salient figure of the minimal techno and IDM world, Alva Noto operates in the audiovisual throughways that link music, art, and science. Mathematical and precise, his work probes the depths of sonic and photonic frequencies, pushing past separations in sensory perception to generate new interpretations of sound and colour.

In HYBR:ID UNI PARA, defined beats, micro-glitch rhythms, and vivid spectral displays inspired by coding and data architecture meet in synchronized collisions, resulting in a hypnotic inquiry into visual and aural experiences at the granular level.

Montréal artist Myriam Bleau’s Hypermobility examines the phenomenon of frequent travel and its associated environmental costs. Echoes of dance music, combined with laser projections that carve geometric light forms into the air, evoke the unrelenting patterns and rhythms of life in constant motion.

A co-production by MUTEK and the Society for Arts and Technology [SAT], presented as part of the SAT’s 30th anniversary.

Alva Noto

Since 1996, Berlin-based artist Carsten Nicolai has explored the delicate and shifting nature of human cognition under his pseudonym Alva Noto. Through a reductionist lens, he draws on coding and logic systems to craft his expansive body of work, meditating on the day-to-day relationships between the seen and unseen, the heard and unheard, and the resulting effects on the psyche. His work has appeared in numerous solo and group exhibitions, as well as international exhibitions like documenta X and the 49th and 50th Venice Biennale. Projects with long-time collaborators Ryuichi Sakamoto, Ryoji Ikeda, and Byetone have cemented him as a pillar within the electronic music world, one capable of transcending space, genre, and perceived limitations.

Myriam Bleau

Myriam Bleau is a composer, digital artist and performer based in Montréal. Using music and sound as a point of departure, she has created gestural electronic music performances, audiovisual interfaces, installations and interactive devices that articulate sound, light, movement and symbols. Her work investigates performance, both as a codified cultural manifestation, and as an embodied (re)enactment of symbolic systems through human and non-human agencies, and has been presented in international festivals like Prix Ars Electronica (AT), Sónar (ES, HK), and MUTEK (MX, CA, AR, JP).
