Los Grillos del Sueño

The sound installation "Les Grillons du Rêve" demonstrates the uniqueness of each cricket in a group, while we are used to hearing them sing in chorus. The starting point for the project was a workshop with children in Chile to research real crickets and build electronic cricket twins.

About the author

Félix Blume

Félix Blume (France, 1984) is a sound artist and sound engineer. He currently lives and works in Mexico, Brazil and France. He uses sound as the basic material in sound pieces, videos, actions, and installations. His process is often collaborative, working with communities and using public space as a context in which to explore and present his work. His practice involves an expanded understanding of listening as a way to promote awareness of the imperceptible and as an act of encounter with others. His work incorporates the sounds of various beings and species, from the buzzing of a bee to the steps of a turtle or the chirping of a cricket, as well as human dialogues with both natural and urban contexts. He is interested in myths and their contemporary interpretations, in what voices can say beyond words.
