Alain Wergifosse supported by Transcultures is hosted in September by the WeSA Sound Arts Center (South Korea) in their residency center located on Jeju Island offering all the technical and logistical facilities.<\/p>\n

The sound and visual artist will develop a new, more mobile performance device, work on the material for a future album and immerse himself in the special atmosphere of this exceptional volcanic island located in the Sea of \u200b\u200bJapan south of the Korean peninsula, which is considered a natural wonder.<\/p>\n

This creative residency is part of an exchange between Transcultures and WeSA that extends over two years and includes hosting sound and digital artists in residence on both sides, as well as showing Belgian and Korean sound\/intermedia performances and installations in the WeSA festival (December) in Seoul and the Transcultures festival, City Sonic (Autumn) in Saint-Ghislain.<\/p>\n

WeSA – community for sound artists<\/strong><\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

WeSA is a community for sound artists, a place to share knowledge and ideas and foster networking among artists. The ultimate goal of WeSA is to build and maintain a sustainable environment at the intersection of arts, sound, and multidisciplinary research.<\/p>\n

Artists can learn and\/or relearn through the programs of the WeSA Academy and connect with other artists. WeSA also invites sound artists from around the world and organizes an annual sound arts festival to provide them with a broader range of opportunities.<\/p>\n

The WeSA residency program takes place in the peaceful town of Seonheul, located in the eastern region of Jeju Island, where participants from diverse backgrounds can freely design and develop their projects. Selected candidates are provided with accommodation and workspaces on Jeju Island, in addition to a design budget. Furthermore, projects conceived during the residency period are selected through a separate evaluation process and are supported for production and presentation.<\/p>\n

Alain Wergifosse<\/strong><\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u200bInsatiable explorer of sound, image and the media since the 1980s, Alain Wergifosse amplifies all kinds of resonant objects and specializes in the electronic processing of feedback to achieve his organic compositions and improvisations. He has traveled the world solo and with various groups and collective projects (Obmuz, Macromassa, SpecOp, Colectivo Anatomic among others).<\/p>\n

From his base in Barcelona, he composed, during ten years, the music and sound interactions of the shows Marcel l\u00ed Ant\u00fanez (ex La Fura dels Baus) and he collaborated with many artists of the experimental musical scene ( Zbigniew Karkowski, Cluster, Jaki Liebezeit, Francisco Lopez, Nad Spiro, Eli Gras,\u2026) and actively participated in various adventurous initiatives in Spain and internationally.<\/p>\n

In recent years, returning to Belgium, he has developed his visual work and produced immersive and interactive installations, self-generative videos, microscopies and other materialist compositions presented in several festivals and international events (City Sonic, MEM, Kikk, Semaine du son, Simultan, Transnumeriques, Pl\u00e9iades, Zone Libre\u2026).<\/p>\n
