Groupe de Recherche en Homéopathie Binaurale Empirique - Mathilde Chenin, Thomas Bethmont, Méryll Ampe, and Gabriel Gelineo - a podcast by Média Médiums - A series of lectures on technology and the spirit world / Une série de conférences sur la technologie et le monde spirite

The Groupe de Recherche en Homéopathie Binaurale Empirique was created from a desire to open up a new area of research in binaural beats, a sonic phenomena produced within the brain. When two slightly different tonalities are experienced separately by each ear, the mind synthesizes the two tracks. For Média Médiums, we have invited different artists to experiment with our machines and prepared colored sounds (white noises, pink noise, etc.). During the exhibition a set up for group listening allows for both a comfortable and intense experience of these phenomena. The inaugural experience, April 11th, will be based on the color blue.
Mathilde Chenin - Born in 1980, lives in Aubervilliers, France. Mathilde Chenin's work emphasizes versions over finished forms, and privileges collaboration as a important aspect of her research. The collective space of being and working together is explored through an idea of expanded writing practices navigating between bodies, techniques and language. Her work is an elaboration of different kinds of systems, geneologies, scores and other Collective Large Objects which draw from a number of domains - binary logic, Object-oriented programming, tensegrity, and the theory of Rough Sets.
Thomas Bethmont - Born in 1986, lives and works in Paris. Thomas Bethmont is an artist, operator, and production manager, as well as a signature, a label and a folder name. In his work, he explores digital culture and different types of music which are linked to it.
Méryll Ampe - Originally trained as a scuptor, since 2010 Méryll Ampe has worked as a sound artist creating a body of experimental musical works. With field recordings as the catalyst, she chooses sounds both for their acoustic and aesthetic qualities, using techniques drawn from her previous sculptural work – carving, modeling, chiseling with digital sound processing tools. In an attempt to capture the initial contours of recorded sounds, her approach is one of extreme proximity, sculpting them in real time. Her compositions are conceived of in terms of space, matter and time in order to imagine new sound landscapes, combining cinematographic intentions and new interactive possibilities, inviting the listener to delve into a personal sound space anchored in a poetic continuum.
Gabriel Gelineo - Born in 1989, Gabriel Gelineo is a self-taught musician of experimental music. His work explores ways of linking sound and image and more recently is oriented towards the exploration of the urban sonic landscape in view of distilling its musical essence. In parallel, he also creates short films using found footage from the Internet.
