Treehouse / Treehome [-2024]
192 lightbulbs, 4 microphones, 1 tree Treehome is a nightly site-specific installation conceived in 2013, when local legends rebuilt this structure. Since, the piece has become a staple @ Otis Mountain, and returned annually. The 2024 version was bigger and brighter to commemorate the festival’s 10th anniversary. Lights animate relative to ambient noise. Localized sounds accentuate 4 zones, while the average of each zone affects global parameters. Treehome is a warm, inclusive installation designed to promote the interconnectedness of all things. Special Thanks: Dan Rome Will Anderson Matt Silverstein Otis Mountain sound house [2024]
Produced by Envision Management and Production, the Bell Orchestre Sound House is a multi-participant interactive audiovisual installation that summons the sounds of Bell Orchestre’s 2021 album House Music. Directed by AATOAA (Vincent Morisset and Caroline Robert) Sound House brings Bell Orchestre’s music to life in a new space. The installation takes the form of an abstract interactive home where visitors can wander through a surreal space, play with the music and interact with the environment. By picking and placing an array of domestic and sentimental artefacts around the room, Sound House transforms through the actions of participants. Melodies, moods and views are triggered: the weather changes, seasons shift, a spatialized musical score is co-composed in real time based on the original recording, and time and place slide by outside its windows. photo credit: Maryse Boyce more info: -aatoaa -envision beamscriber [2023]

"PAX" is an immersive 16 channel audio installation complemented by interactive site-specific lighting. The piece is a 45 min seamless loop. 𝐏𝐀𝐗, « paix » en latin, propose un refuge pour l'esprit et les sens à l'écart de l'agitation et du tumulte quotidien. Un moment pour prendre une pause et déambuler dans le paysage musical spatialisé de Louis-Olivier Desmarais, artiste sonore montréalais. Inspirée par les retraites de Louis-Olivier à l'Abbaye de Saint-Benoît-du-Lac, l’expérience offre un espace séculier favorable à la plénitude et à l’apaisement. Suspendus aux fenêtres, 13 vitraux de papier d'Iseult Schreiber teintent la salle de douceur et accueillent l'éclairage vivant de Daniel Freder, rendant la promenade propice à l'illumination. Halte de paix, retraite séculière en plein cœur de la ville, PAX est véritablement une chapelle dans une chapelle.
