Quelques réflexions sur un espace composé

L’idée d’entité sonore englobe les aspects physiques du phénomène sonore et ceux perceptifs dans un réseau d’opérations manipulables au niveau de la composition musicale (sonore). L’entité sonore ne pourra, par ses particularités, être objectivement définie que par l’ensemble d’éléments disparates qui la constituent lesquels ne semblent pas a priori cohésifs. Cependant, la technologie actuelle autorise l’accès non seulement à l’extériorité mais également à l’intériorité du son, rendant possible l’intégration logique de toutes ses hétérogénéités. Fondée sur des opérations, des articulations, mais également sur des perceptions, l’entité sonore inclut l’acte même de composition : des schémas opératoires, des interactions et des articulations en font partie. Ainsi conçue dans le contexte musical, elle est un élément qui interagit, qui agit, qui réagit et qui accepte des transformations dans le contexte compositionnel où elle est utilisée ou construite. Le son ainsi composé, considéré comme un ensemble de perceptions, d’éléments manipulables, d’opérations possibles à tous les niveaux temporels, est une présence porteuse d’espace.
