Based on an old parlor game, it was played by several people, each of whom would write a phrase on a sheet of paper, fold the paper to conceal part of it, and pass it on to the next player for his contribution. The technique got its name from results obtained in initial playing, “Le cadavre / exquis / boira / le vin / nouveau” (The exquisite corpse will drink the young wine). Other examples are: “The dormitory of friable little girls puts the odious box right” and “The Senegal oyster will eat the tricolor bread.” These poetic fragments were felt to reveal what Nicolas Calas characterized as the “unconscious reality in the personality of the group” resulting from a process of what Ernst called “mental contagion.” At the same time, they represented the transposition of Lautréamont’s classic verbal collage to a collective level, in effect fulfilling his injunction— frequently cited in Surrealist texts—that “poetry must be made by all and not by one.” It was natural that such oracular truths should be similarly sought through images, and the game was immediately adapted to drawing, producing a series of hybrids the first reproductions of which are to be found in No. 9-10 of La Révolution surrealiste (October, 1927) without identification of their creators. The game was adapted to the possibilities of drawing, and even collage, by assigning a section of a body to each player, though the Surrealist principle of metaphoric displacement led to images that only vaguely resembled the human form” Source: “Dada & Surrealist Art,” by William S.

We are in the studio at the moment, enjoying creative vibes. Thanks. -When & how did you two start working together? Our first collaboration was project called "Podoknica" (it stands for "Serenade" in our language). It was a sound and visual performance which we did together with Marko Vivoda at a small intimate venue "at Green Rabbit". -Is the Slovenian scene open to new talents, experiments and live improvisations? The scene itself is quite vital and open towards new things. Crowd has open-minded view to music which leads to more and more innovative events with skillful artists. -When and how did you record this podcast? Podoknica was recorded in October 2012 at Green Rabbit. What we tried to do was a semi Live act where both of us focused on different approaches, using Live. Evano on one side with strongly perceptible focus on Musique concrète and modular programming in Reaktor and Nitz with his field recordings, drone samples and painstaking produced rhythms in Reason, wired back to the mixer's output. Crucial part of shifting picturesque audio/visual experience consisted of analog visuals by Marko Vivoda. Podoknica isn`t the same without the visuals. So this podcast is audio collage for those who know how to expand their imagination and disconnect from reality. -What can we expect from both of you this year? We are planning to start off a series of small educational events focused on electro-acoustic music. Also our next live collaboration is expected in late April. AYANE & MAX BINSKI -How have you been? Great. Starting a multitude of new projects, either in and out of pluie/noir, and gathering up a small graphic studio & workshop at home. -When & how did you two start working together? We actually went to university together, and were in the same design course/class. Usually our work was done together when teachers asked for group projects, so working together is a natural thing at this point of our professional lives, learning with each other and exploring the same vibes is part of the process. -How's the employment situation in Portugal at the moment for designers? Creative studios still appear every once in a while, but are usually recruiting temporary interns for short work periods that are, most of the times, under-payed. The big enterprises are firing a lot of people due to the economical crisis, so our "dream jobs" in the "dream companies" are much harder to find. We're both unemployed, trying to survive with freelance work and struggling for personal and honest clients. So if you're reading this and you want to hire someone for design work, we're really nice and hard-working guys ;) -We're actually seeing a full piece instead of the triptych. When and how did you paint this "mural"? Ayane gathered meters and meters of Kraft paper from Ikea, we just unrolled it over the ground and improvised, listening to the podcast in repeat during a whole afternoon/night. We started using oil crayons drawing the outlines spontaneously, and slowly moved to actual acrylic inks and went with it completely in the end. So this is literally the effect we felt that sound could have on a graphical piece. -What can we expect from both of you this year? If we get hired more, we'll do more freelance work. ahah We're both creating our own lines of signed work, moving to new grounds such as sculpture or screen printing, and even some clothing line.

How are you miss Ayane? I'm well. Specially today that I finally spoiled myself with a new gift and surrendered to the charming world of smartphones. Starting today I'll be a bit more connected to the world, and able to feed my tumblr hunger for new visuals everywhere. 2. What are you working on lately? I've ben embracing one or another project in some very distinct fields, one is music related, other is make-up. In the mean time I've been investing some of my time on little formations in parallel areas to design, such as Marketing and Publicity. As long as I'm not hunting my wonder job I have to enjoy my freedom to look a little more aside and see things in another way. 3. This triptych looks quite different from your last contributions. How did you create it? Indeed! This time I kept me promise. If you remember, on the previous interview I said I would dedicate myself to techniques with a more manual component. I kept the promise and used plasticine. I confess this triptych was more fun to do. 4. One month and a half to close 2012. What is your balance? Well, one month and a half away of closing my 26 years of age. One year that started out busy, when I returned to my home city and developed myself artistically speaking. It was a pleasure to see this project grow and I hope that with all the fuzz about the end of the world in the end of 2012 that it does not come true. I'm sure 2013 has good things for me. In case the world does end, let's hope it is in a good way with a Pluir/Noir showcase with all its elements. 5. Future plans? Continue to dedicate to what I really like to do, If possible more hours per day. The challenge is to turn my passion into my finantial support. Let new projects rain!

Archipel Musique has been your home since the start. How's your relationship with Archipel, Pheek and your collabs with him? :: It is a relationship of mutual respect I feel. It would be pretentious for me to claim that I love all Archipel releases but what I like with the label is the concept behind it and the openness Pheek shows when selecting music to be released. As for collaborations it is not always easy to keep the motivation up when you live so far away from each other although it is usually fun. With Pheek it was a very pleasant experience as our strongpoints and weaknesses were sort of complementing each other and we did not have trouble finding common ground in our taste in music. We were looking forward on your contribution to P/N. How did you record it and what was your main idea behind it? :: I had made a list of records that I thought might be interesting to hear, be it because of their beauty, their simplicity or the interesting sounds and/or groove the artist used. Generally I was not after a specific style nor after a thorough mixing style but I did not rule out having some 4 to the floor grooves in it. Finally not all tracks went into the podcast as I just recorded away on 2 decks and somewhere you obviously hit the limit of 1 hour. I do prefer to keep it rather simple than having too many things go on at the same time. 
 Is your life only dedicated to music production? :: Mostly yes. But I have created some hobbies evolving around it. I am a bit of a gear nerd and always interested to find out how certain equipment sounds and why. That has led me into building lots of gadgets I can use for music production. It is a good way to waste time when inspiration and motivation are not omnipresent. What's next on your agenda? :: Well it has been a while since I released music under my name. The album on Archipel is almost 2 years away from now. Lots of things have changed in my studio since then and it took me a while to get used to the new workflow. I also do not release music if I'm not absolutely happy with the result. Since I always have the desire to push myself to the next level in terms of overall mixdown and finding new and interesting sounds that remain musical it has been difficult the last 2 years. Things are looking up though and I hope to have a couple of new tracks out or at least finished by the end of 2012. AYANE Welcome back to Lisbon. How have you been? :: Well well, I’m already installed in Lisbon, but still trying to fit myself to the new-yet-old reality of returning home. How was your experience in Porto? :: It was an enriching experience, with a bit of self-isolation and employment in an area that didn’t satisfy me 100% as a designer. But it gave me the push I needed to develop and improve my work as an illustrator and designer. Do you find Lisbon a suitable and inspiring city for a junior designer to start a life? :: Lisbon is a larger city with more opportunities than Porto, but here competition is also tougher. In Porto everything is more concentrated in terms of space, I felt an intense artistic life. Lisbon is certainly inspiring, and this is my home. However, it was good to spend some time out, give this city its well deserved value and better appreciate its peculiarities. 
 Another simple yet intriguing triptych. What can you tell us about it? :: It was a good challenge. This time I left the color aside and went a bit more monochrome, which is intriguing since the name of the podcast is precisely "green". It's more dark & focused, less wavy and still soft and feminine I think. It's a different approach compared to my usual work. One of my goals in these kind of abstract works is the search for new ways to expand my graphic vocabulary. Future Plans? :: Future plans ... a blank page! New job, new home, new projects. I'm focusing my work now on manual and hand-crafted techniques. Visual interpretation of "Green", Pluie/Noir Podcast 012 ( by Marc Neyen).
