 A collective exhibition at the heart of living systems. "Cartographie Sensible" proposes a sensitive, embodied mapping of territories — ecological, bodily, sonic and relational — through installation, sound art and digital works. The exhibition brings together children's sound pieces documenting their neighbourhood, a student collective work mixing felt, sound and cartography developed during a residency in Cyprus, and video works by artist Riccardo Martinez exploring landscape, memory and identity.

-Facing the rise of fascist ideologies in Europe, this exhibition asserts what persists, what resists, what will not be silenced. Presented as part of Electropixel Festival 15, the show gathers works from radical, feminist, electronic, decolonial and collective practices — concrete strategies of self-defence, listening, memory and the subversion of dominant technologies. With works by Marie-Laure Dupont, Na/Da, Eduard Sufrin and Sonia Saroya.

 An installation combining video works by Katherine Liberovskaya and Phill Niblock with a generative AI layer developed by the Apo33 collective — "Niblock AI – Infinite Memory v1 for 16 Karplus Strong Strings". Produced as a tribute following Phill Niblock's death in January 2024, the work proposes an infinite machine-generated memory of his sustained-tone music practice through AI-generated sound structures and a 16-channel spatialized configuration.

 An interactive video installation exploring the artists' long relationship with trees and forests. Drawing on years of practice listening to inaudible natural phenomena — rivers, trees, stars, insects — this work focuses on the sonic landscape of Białowieża, the last primeval forest in Europe, on the Belarus border: a place where military forces mass while refugees attempt to cross into Europe through what locals call "the jungle". The forest is simultaneously friend and enemy, a source of tranquillity and agitation, healing and horror.

+Carbon Death is an artistic research collective founded by Julien Ottavi and Jenny Pickett, operating at the intersection of sound art, visual installation and critical environmental inquiry. The collective pursues research without disciplinary allegiance — deliberately positioning itself at odds with the conventions of artists, curators, scientists and academics alike, through a wilful impertinence toward the established languages and methodologies of each of these fields. Taking concrete as its central material, metaphor and subject, the work draws on J.G. Ballard's novel Concrete Island — in which an architect becomes stranded on a strip of land between motorways — inheriting Ballard's excavation of the social fissures buried within our constructed utopias: the interconnected isolation of infrastructure, the myth of the home, the slow violence embedded in modern urban form.
-Borrowing its title from J.G. Ballard's novel, "Concrete Island" is an installation examining ecological collapse, carbon cycles and the brutality of urban concrete environments through sound, visual matter and data, at the intersection of environmental research and noise aesthetics.
+Concrete is understood here not as a neutral building material but as an instrument of control — used to sterilise space, to fix and possess the ground, to impose a manufactured permanence at the expense of nature and the messy vitality of everything that grows in the margins and cracks of the city. The works draw on field research into the urbanisation of Nantes, combining extended listening practices focused on the vibration and resonance of concrete structures with a visual and sculptural inquiry into accumulation, architectural confrontation and the aesthetics of brutalism and deconstruction — held in deliberate tension with the realities of the present moment. The result is a sustained critical practice that proposes a long-term framework for thinking through the concreting of our shared environment and its consequences for how we inhabit, hear and understand the world we have built around ourselves.

 Sniffing the network and transforming it into a sonic and visual potential—this is our premise. We aim to construct a set of relationships and translation systems for code tied to network hacking methods and activity detection, machine names, and information transmission through the ether. Silence does not exist, and the internet is noisy. We are the time travelers crossing projected space in obsolete bodies. Chaoslab extends this notion of chaos and entropy to the representation of the network; it is not a finished, established work, but rather protocols for transforming an invisible virtual space.
