Despite the many accounts, the Western scientific community denied their existence for decades until some hypotheses about their origin began to surface in the 1950s, but are still debated today.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some believe that the natural VLF (Very Low Frequency) radio waves produced by the aurora borealis can be perceived in the observer\/listener&#8217;s environment. Some natural elements (minerals or crystals) would act as receivers and transform the radio waves (electromagnetic) into the audible spectrum (acoustic). Without rejecting any hypothesis, it is this last one that caught S\u00e9bastien&#8217;s attention for his project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite successful recordings following a three-week residence on And\u00f8ya in Norway, S\u00e9bastien realised that the VLF waves emitted by the aurora are increasingly difficult to perceive because they are more and more drowned out by artificial signals. They are therefore bound to disappear. Inspired by this unique context, and in the continuity of his previous work, S\u00e9bastien is currently developing a body of work around this research, which will allow the audience to perceive the sounds of the aurora borealis while preserving them in light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"690\" src=\"https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-ArcticWave-01-1024x690.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-ArcticWave-01-1024x690.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-ArcticWave-01-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-ArcticWave-01-768x517.jpg 768w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-ArcticWave-01-1536x1035.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-ArcticWave-01-2048x1379.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><meta charset=\"utf-8\">And\u00f8ya, Octobre 2021 \u00a9 S\u00e9bastien Robert<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"690\" src=\"https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-02-1024x690.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11204\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-02-1024x690.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-02-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-02-768x517.jpg 768w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-02-1536x1035.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-02-2048x1379.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Lofoten, February 2022 \u00a9 S\u00e9bastien Robert<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">Share this event on social networks<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"socialLinks socialShare\"><ul><li><script>function fbs_click() {u=location.href;t=document.title;window.open('http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/en\/the-lights-which-can-be-heard\/&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436'); return false; }<\/script><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=<;url>\" onclick=\"return fbs_click()\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"facebookLink\"><i class=\"fab fa-facebook-f\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/en\/the-lights-which-can-be-heard\/\" target=\"_blank\" ><i class=\"fab fa-linkedin-in\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=The+lights+which+can+be+heard&amp;url=https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/en\/the-lights-which-can-be-heard\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"twitterLink\"><i class=\"fab fa-twitter\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Artist<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"artisteBlock  \"><div class=\"artisteBlockLeft\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/chroniques-biennale.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/TLWCBH-ArcticWave-01-1000x1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div><div class=\"artisteBlockRight\"><h2>France Jobin <sup>(QC\/CA)<\/sup><\/h2><div class=\"artisteContent\"><p>France Jobin, artiste audio et compositrice de film bas\u00e9e \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al, se distingue par son art audio minimaliste, qualifi\u00e9 de \u00ab sculpture sonore \u00bb. Elle cr\u00e9e des environnements sonores complexes m\u00ealant analogique et num\u00e9rique.

France Jobin a produit de nombreux albums sous des labels renomm\u00e9s tels que LINE (US), Baskaru (FR), et Editions Mego. Sa musique explore les notions de retenue et de limite, jouant habilement avec les extr\u00eames, les amplitudes et les silences pour cr\u00e9er des narratifs complexes. En 2021, elle a pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 &#8220;Entanglement AV&#8221; avec Markus Heckmann \u00e0 Mutek \u00c9dition 22.
