In distance liquide, the imagery of liquid, flowing, and rapidly dissolving forms serves as a metaphor for sound spatialization in the electroacoustic space. Each musical gesture is tied to a specific spatial movement that highlights its character.
From recorded sequences featuring a gong, various percussion instruments, trumpet, flute, and vocal fragments, these seemingly distant sound elements converge into a shared musical discourse. At times, their vastly different spectra are reduced to their loudest harmonic components, leaving only pure pitches and melodies—ultimately dissolving their differences.
