[French issue]

Theme:
With a connotation that is more negative than that of sound, noise is generally perceived as a nuisance, a parasitic element that insinuates itself within a system to spread disorder. This issue aims to deepen the reflection on the notion of noise in current art, the specific form of exploiting sonorous material evident in the work of an increasing number of artists. Sound clips can be found online at www.esse.ca/bruit, including portfolios by Christof Migone, Jean-Pierre Gauthier, and Jocelyn Robert.
