For a residency in Q-02, Acousmatic Foley took Chantal Akerman’s first short movie “Saute Ma Ville” (1968) as a case study. Throughout Akerman’s sound-work, the project foregrounded concepts as “sound-motif”, “sound-actor” and “sound-prop”.
This residency was kindly authorized by Chantal Akerman’ State, through the Beligium Cinematek.
The performance starts of with Live Foley for the silent parts of the film, and then proceeds acousmatically with the samples taken from the original track. It has been performed at PAF (2018) and Ponrepo (2019).
In 2020, a study of the movie has been published in Iluminace (2019/4).
