Listening to the complete electroacoustic work of Iannis Xenakis three times in its entirety has been a long journey through the cold, dark and threatening wasteland of hellish sonic regions, where all hope of encountering life is vain. The most impressive pieces are certainly Bohor, La légende d'Eer and Gendy 3. But above all, Persepolis, which evokes for me the inexorable approach of universal cosmic nothingness whose pitiless mechanics suck up, crush and disintegrate all the subtle forms of consciousness in a terrible agony.
The experience of this listening will have given me a better understanding of electroacoustics, a genre relatively unknown to me, and of the musical and sound evolution of the 20th century.
