Cette recherche de thèse vise à reconstruire des éléments de genèse de la composition électroacoustique de Pierre Boulez dans les années cinquante à travers l’étude d’esquisses et de manuscrits conservés au Paul Sacher Stiftung. Notre thèse s’est fondée sur deux approches complémentaires : la reconstitution du contexte musical, esthétique et historique et l’étude des esquisses. Dans la Partie I, nous avons tout d’abord examiné les Fonds Pierre Schaeffer afin de retracer le déroulement du premier stage de musique concrète au GRMC. La réorganisation des esquisses et la reconstitution du processus de montage sonore nous ont permis de souligner que la composition des deux études de musique concrète (1951-52) était une étape indispensable pour le développement de la pensée sérielle de Boulez dans le sérialisme intégral. Dans la Partie II, nous avons mis en relation la composition de Symphonie mécanique (1955) et Poésie pour pouvoir (1958) avec le concept de « sons organisés » dans Déserts (1954) d’Edgard Varèse en traçant la transition de la musique concrète à la musique mixte. Boulez y a développé la notion de « blocs sonores » originairement exploitée dans l’écriture instrumentale et orchestrale. Notre étude a éclairé que Boulez avait procédé par tâtonnements de façon cohérente et développée afin de réaliser l’intégration des mondes instrumentaux et électroacoustiques. En ce sens, il est raisonnable que Poésie pour pouvoir soit considérée comme l’origine de la « musique mixte » chez Pierre Boulez. Par ailleurs, cette tentative de confrontation était inévitable pour Boulez afin de réaliser la transmutation musicale de l’exorcisme corporel du poème de Henri Michaux. / This research aims to reconstruct the compositional process of Pierre Boulez’s electroacoustic compositions of the fifties through the study of sketches and manuscripts preserved at the Paul Sacher Stiftung. Our thesis was based on two complementary approaches: the reconstruction of the musical, aesthetic and historical context and study of the sketches. In Part I, we first examined the Pierre Schaeffer archives in order to explore the program of the first musique concrète workshop at the GRMC. The eorganization of the sketches and the reconstruction of the process of sound synthesis allowed us to emphasize that Boulez’s composition of the two musique concrète studies (1951-52) was an indispensable stage for the development of his concept of serialism. In Part II, we related the composition of Symphonie mécanique (1955) and Poésie pour pouvoir (1958) to Edgard Varèse's concept of "Organized sound" in Déserts (1954) by tracing the transition of musique concrète to electroacoustic music. Boulez developed in his electroacoustic pieces the notion of "sound blocks" originally used in instrumental and orchestral pieces. Our study reveals that Boulez proceeded by trial and error in a coherent and developed way in order to realize the integration of the instrumental and electroacoustic sounds. In this sense, it is reasonable for Poésie pour pouvoir to be considered as the origin of mixed music in Pierre Boulez’s oeuvre. This confrontation of the instrumental and electroacoustic sounds was essential for Boulez’s realization of a musical translation of Henri Michaux's poem.

Tais discussões são presentes tanto em vertentes mais estruturalistas, que não vêm qualquer possibilidade de organização a priori desse tipo de material sonoro, quanto naquelas que se aproximam mais da música concreta, que não concordam com o alto nível de referencialidade sonora empregado nesse tipo de obra por entrar em desacordo com as proposições da escuta reduzida de Pierre Schaeffer. A partir de tal análise, foi possível apresentar algumas possibilidades de organização de sons ambientais em composições do tipo Paisagem Sonora através da comparação dos resultados da análise com as proposições de Wishart (1986) e Emmerson (1986). / Abstract: The Soundscapes compositions, which use environmental sounds as main material, have generated wide discussions in the scope of electroacustical music. Such quarrels are found in structuralist sources, which do not agree with any possibility of organization a priori to this type of sonorous material, as in those which approach more to concret music, that do not agree with the high level of sounds external references applied in this type of work, because it disagrees with the proposals of the Reduced Listening of Pierre Schaeffer. From such analysis, it was possible to demonstrate some possibilities of organization of environmental sounds in Soundscapes Compositions through the comparision of the results of the analysis with the proposals of Wishart (1986) and Emmerson (1986). / Mestre

I den här texten diskuteras förmågan hos elektroakustisk musik att uttrycka sig genom associationer, och frågar ifall musik någonsin kan vara utan en sådan associativ effekt. Detta görs genom luppen av mitt eget arbete, där jag har hämtat inspiration ur mellantillstånd och mellanplatser, liminal spaces, samt genom mitt försök att utarbeta en metod för att arbeta med utommusikaliska referenser som kan informera musikaliska, konstnärliga beslut. Den konstnärliga delen av examensarbetet utgörs av: DEC (2021), K87-89 (2021), Koltrast (2021), samt installationen: Metamorfos (2022). / <p>Alla de bilagor som har "(supercollider-kod)" i sig ska egentligen vara i Supercollider-format ".scd" istället för ".txt".

Through creative and theoretical research, this practice-led PhD project investigates the conditions that facilitate embodied sensory awareness within digital inter-media installation. Central to this exploration are questions concerning ‘immersion.’ The research uses this term to describe a transformation in perception that allows us to shake off representational and symbolic meaning in favour of embodied, sensory and intuitive awareness within an installation space. Drawing from embodied memories of immersion in natural and spiritual environments, I consider the elements that contributed to these experiences and ask whether it is possible to create this sense of immersion in art. I then consider the elements that produce immersive, inter-media environments including space, sound, light, and projected moving images. Drawing on theoretical and artistic precedents, I propose a set of principles for producing a sense of embodied sensory immersion. The practical outcomes of the research - three digital inter-media installations included in the exhibition, in an other light - incorporate different combinations and treatments of these material elements to investigate and test the proposed principles.
