Composer and visual artist Ryoji Ikeda is a prominent figure in Japanese electronic music. His creations invite listeners to experience immersion in a world mingling sound, image, space, perceptive phenomena and mathematical equations. The exhibition unveils a new installation, where a black room and a white room divide the space into two opposing and complementary worlds. On one side, a large audiovisual installation where the artist makes a "meta-composition": a vertiginous mix of sound and visual data that are abstract, according to mathematical laws. On the other, a sound installation consisting of huge loudspeakers, where you are invited to a listening performance through a circuit where you can walk around freely, and which guides your musical experience.
