Abstract

The PerformaPhone is a sound installation of the archived voices of the participants of the site-specific participatory choreography Une dance ancienne by Rémy Héritier presented in Grenoble between 2021 and 2024 at the Centre de Développement Chorégraphique (CDCN), Le Pacifique . This Voicings contribution describes the ways in which counter histories of choreographic participatory projects are made with public facing sound installations such as the Ecouter le Terrain project and Performance Lab’s PerformaPhone. The article addresses the underpinning questions and creative process of this research-creation project and includes a video that offers the reader a taste of the contents of the installation.
