[spectre] PARIS - DISTORSION with Philippe Laurent, Unison, Neonbirds & Thierry Théolier

[Thierry Théolier]

"DISTORSION" NIGHT with-and-for Philippe Laurent.

"plastic artist, musician and designer. Whether working with graphic 
codes or digital codes, plastic arts or music, Laurent’s approach is one 
of research, specifically having to do with people’s perception of signs 
and symbols. As a multi-media artist, he has always been open to new 
technologies, whether he is composing musical works or creating graphic 
works. During the 90s, he reached a landmark with his inter-disciplinary 
work via shows in France and Germany, by designing complex pieces that 
mixed various advanced techniques. His paintings, the illusion of 
calligraphies on monochromic funds, pose a question about the 
relationship between signs and meanings. Philippe Laurent develops 
ideograms party figural and partly abstraction, aiming to never repeat 
the same figure twice, like the writing of a lost continent or of an 
original language, a code which would have preceded all the other 
languages and which would have been lost. This game of ambiguity asks 
the fundamental question of the ontological state of the written 
language in our western societies. Philippe Laurent comes from a long 
personal study of the shapes of early symbols and letters which leads to 
the sublime nature of an esoteric alphabet."

** Minimal Wave is proud to present HOT-BIP a full length LP by French 
mastermind Philippe Laurent. The LP is entitled Hot-Bip, a pseudonym 
Laurent used throughout the 80s and 90s and also the title of his 1983 
cassette on Fraction Studio. Hot-Bip features tracks recorded between 
1979-1988, most of which have either remained unreleased or only 
previously appeared on scarce 80s experimental cassette compilations. 
Laurent’s music can be described as spacey synthpop, containing much 
depth and range. It is edgy, political and pushes the limits, 
transforming his sound beyond one specific genre. Hints of classical 
influences as well as electro influences can be heard. Hot-Bip showcases 
Laurent’s best musical output from the 80’s and includes some very 
avant-garde pieces from as early as 1979. A limited edition of 999 
hand-numbered copies, this LP is pressed on 180 gram, translucent red 
vinyl and housed in a black and white matte printed heavyweight sleeve
