Stéréo Vulcani

Stéréo Vulcani is a lively, sensitive sound creation. Three performers on stage weave together sounds, collected recordings, electronic music, and intimate accounts gathered from friends and family to talk about troubled mental states, distorting horizons, and landscapes. It is a plunge into the abyss that raises questions, analyses, upsets, stirs things up, and opens up the space for dialogue on mental conditions.

“Stereocaulon vulcani is a pioneering living species that can be found on the lava flows of certain volcanoes. The first trace of life after an explosion, it’s a transitional space between two different landscapes: a smooth black expanse/trees and plants. Like a hinge between two states, like certain crises that enable us to move forward, like a necessity to rebuild things differently. It’s a dual organism, a mutual exchange between algae and fungi. This species evokes the porosity of things, of beings, of their representation and their resilience. By drawing inspiration from the behaviour of Stereocaulon vulcani, we seek to explore the dual landscape that constitutes us, both the external landscape, that which we see and can embrace with our eyes, and the internal landscape, our psychic state, our mental landscape.”
