With Corticalart (cortex's art) the connection between artist and his instrument become thousand times clutched than usually. It's the better process to go, early and rightly, to the origin of mental gesture of creation, to intercept, to amplify and to organize instantly the secret voice of main psychical mechanisms.
«Je suis un homme de variété qui compose de façon classique, à partir de bruits intérieurs qui viennent de mes rêves» (Pierre Henry 2010)

I'm very proud to share this rarity, just when in those days the 82 years old Pierre receive in his Paris's house 70 spectators by day.

From the back slive of the Philips LP 6521.022 (the famous "Perpectives du 21° siècle" series), the 1971 notes of Maurice Fleuret:
Pierre Henry, qui vit dans l'intimité des microphones et des haut-parleurs depuis plus de vingt ans, n'est pas homme à subir passivement le poids de la technicité, mais plutót à s'en servir de levier pour pousser toujours plus avant son investigation de l'inoui. L'oeuvre électroacoustique de Pierre Henry, aujourd'hui la plus vaste, la plus pure et la plus determinante qui soit, montre clairement qu'une symbiose s'est accomplie entre l'artisan et son outil et qu'un appareillage électronique ultra-perfectionné, s'il assure, certes, la précision du geste du sculpteur de sons, n'en cesse pas pour autant d'aiguillonner sa sensibilité.
Mais voilà qu'avec le Corticalart (littéralement: l'art du cortex) le rapport entre l'artiste et son instrument devient milie fois plus étroit encore. Il s'agit d'aller, plus vite et mieux, à la source du geste mental de la création, de capter, d'amplifier et d'organiser dans l'instant la voix secrète des principaux mécanismes psychiques. A un compositeur féru d'expériences, qui s'est toujours passionné pour le matériau offert à l'invention par les micro-sons organiques et pour l'assouplissement des techniques électro-acoustiques permettant de tromper la fixité de la bande magnétique, c'est une aventure exaltante que propose l'appareil imaginé par Roger Lafosse, pionnier de l'action culturelle d'avant-garde, fondateur et directeur du SIGMA des arts et tendances contemporaines de Bordeaux, lui aussi chercheur et musicien.
Fixé sur la propre tète du musicien, un système d'électrodes, semblable à celui employé dans l'électro-encéphalogramme, permet de détecter trois sortes de signaux électriques traduisant l'activité car ìctéristique de certaines zones du cortex cérébral : les ondes ALPHA (état de relaxation, d'inattention, de repos), les ondes BETA (état d'éveil, d'attention, d'activité, de réaction) et l'ARTE FACT lié aux mouvements du globe oculaire. Sept sources sonores distinctes, c'est-à-dire sept générateurs de sons électroniques, sont moduiés par ces ondes infinitésimales. Elles offrent au compositeur, qui est à la fois ici son propre matériau et son propre interprete, une substance musicale susceptible d'étre manipulée, combinée, amplifiée à volonté dans une improvisation directe et spontanee jusqu'alors sans exemple dans le domaine de l'électroacoustique.

Hi, What player to play this with? Does any special codec required to play this? Thanks.
Posted By: d'Avignon Date: 30 Oct 2010 00:20:58
What player do you use?
If you have WMP, just download & install the K-lite codec pack. You'll have everything you need for the most common music and movie formats

Strangely enough from Avax's FAQ, homemade LP rip it's not "Music", so I was constrained to unckeck all musical reference to Pierre Henry music...:
"Posting the vinyl rips or similar homemade products is strongly forbidden in the Music section. You'll must to publish such rips in our "Hi-Resolution" section only. Please, do not mark any checkboxes for Music in that situation! All Hi-Resolution (vinyl or not) rips posted in the Music section (with Pop/Folk/Rock or Lossless' marked checkboxes) will be refused immediately."

What's the meaning of Hi-Resolution? EAC homemade rip of a CD it's not the same (and perhaps of minus quality in respect of the wider range of frequencies of an analog Lp ripping)?

@d'avignon:

When I play the files with VLC, Winamp, Windows Media Player or Media Player Classic, it seems I hear a lot of static, something in line with trying to play a DTS CD on an ordinary player. I do not know if my computer has some problem or the sound card is dying or what! I have K-lite and CCCP codecs installed, as well some other codec/decoder to play DTS files/disks.

I just wanted to make sure that there was no special codec or something involved in this.

Now, after I read the description, it looks like that is the style of the music here.

Just another dumb avax policy... you can rip a CD with EAC, but rip a DVD-Audio with DVD-A Explorer, with better quality, and somehow it is no longer "music" ... there is no logic there. Hats off to you and everyone else who puts up with these bothersome policies to share music.
