Philae

Allain Gaussin: Philae for violin – AL 30 720 The 12th of November 2014 was a day of glory for the Rosetta mission: after a ten-year journey in space, the Philae lander a minuscule robot whose job was to gather scientific data set down on the comet Churi to analyze the composition of the soil and evolution of its structure when the shooting star approaches the Sun. This technical prowess also produced photos. Contemplating them could only inspire Allain Gaussin, a follower of spectral music and very keen on astrophysics. How might one translate the intensity of the impressions felt by the viewer of these aerospace photos? Philae, for solo violin, chooses to make contrasts collide: the smooth and the rough, the bright and the dark, the bounce and the static.
