alzheimer12 by Michel F. Côté, Diane Labrosse, Christof Migone, Martin Tétreault

Nothing is certain about this session carried out at studio 12 of the Société Radio-Canada in Montreal. Presumed to be in August 1995, we do not know the exact date of the recording. It is likely that it was on the occasion of the inauguration of this new high-tech location that was studio 12. At certain moments, we can actually hear the motors which activate the spatial position of the mechanized panel sections of the walls (for more or less natural reverberation). All that remains is the mix of these six pieces, produced during the session. Forgotten, the recording of this session was rediscovered by chance on a poorly identified DAT cassette.

We were invited to this magnificent studio at the initiative of Hélène Prévost.

The release of no longer knowing can be considered as a space-time adventure. The future is upon us, the past escapes us, yesterday will return to us tomorrow in a retrofuturistic spirit.
