Ce que l'œil voit - PART 1
Atelier de Création Radiophonique
(France Culture,1995)
Par Olivier Capparos et Lionel Marchetti
« Ce que l’œil voit » est une pièce radiophonique d’exploration :
la vision, le regard, la poésie de cette vision et de ce regard, y sont contés, à travers l’histoire de la médecine, de la littérature et du sens allégorique, souvent miraculeux et enchanteur, qu’on a accordé à l’œil.
Le contenu et l’expression sonore et musicale nous rappellent sans cesse que « voir » veut dire à la fois la caresse et le déchirement."
Remerciements à : René Farabet

Lionel Marchetti
is a French composer of concrete music
an improviser (electronics, various analogic systems with modified speakers, REVOX reel-to-reel recorder…)
as well as a visual-sound artist, a writer and a poet
Whether his music is composed or improvised
the body has an important role (Lionel Marchetti danced with the university company Relyanse between 1986 and 1991)
To define his music, one can borrow Kenneth White’s saying :
« Concrete or abstract ?
I like abstraction where a memory of substance remains, concrete refined on the frontiers of emptiness. »
