ST-Gervais

ST-Gervais
ST-Gervais Temple / Geneva / CH / 2010

This audiovisual performance was developed by Yannick Jacquet and Thomas Vaquié, at the request of the organist of « le Temple de Gervais », for a presentation at the 2010 edition of Geneva’s Mapping Festival. Employing the latest digital technology, they created a dialogue between the church’s architecture, the organ and electronic music, using the church’s vault and walls as an abstract narrative framework.
