Far from constituting a mausoleum that would contribute to the canonization of the heritage of Francophone Belgian culture, the Centre alias Le Vaisseau is a non-prescribing place with an experiential vocation, a catalyst of reference for the contemporary creation known as Belgian and the artistic ecosystem in its transversality. Through a resolutely de-sanctuarizing and a-trans-disciplinary programming, the Center is mandated to disseminate and promote the signatures of artists based in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. It thus ensures the promotion of emerging or established talents, from the peripheral to the dedicated. It helps to stimulate international co-productions and partnerships and to crystallize attention in favor of the so-called Belgian scene. The Centre unveils, by season, artistic approaches that attest to the irreducibility to a common denominator of porous territories of contemporary creation. Located in the 4th district of Paris, its programming is spread over more than 1000 m2\. Belgian decentralized vessel, in addition to the programming it deploys in-situ, it also implements programming outside-the-walls and invests cyberspace as a territory of creation and propagation with dedicated content. The Centre is a decentralised service of Wallonia-Brussels International (WBI): instrument of the international policy conducted by Wallonia, the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles and the Commission communautaire française de la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale.

The festival ((((interference_S)))) _ festival of sound substrate _ is the banner of self-differentiating, self-publishing research - a festival of the unpredictable, decoding, carried by artists limiting buried realities and unsuspected sounds.
It unfolds in the spaces of the Centre via an anarkhè-exhibition that aggregates research-creations that probe the sounds of the visual installation to the radio creations, but also the time of events called 'days of intercession'.
These days propose to extend the challenges of the festival by creating moments of condensation: Moments when works cease to be stabilized entities to become active and become situations in the making, protocols of experience, collective ecologies.
They take place, they occupy, they overflow.
Workshops, activations of works, collaborative works, edible proposals, performances, live, concerts.
Here, Maryia Kamarova — Workshop Sound artifacts as Material - Language: English
This workshop envisages amplification not only as a technical process, but as a strategy of attention and perceptual decentering, a way to enter into friction with acoustic ecology and the materiality of sound equipment. Amplifying is revealing as much as obliterating: Bringing out certain presences, relegating others to areas of indeterminacy. Amplification thus acts as an unstable mediation, sometimes dissenting, of what we hear — an operation of shifting the listening thresholds.
How can we amplify by the attention itself, by shifting our sensitive scales, by modulating our listening regimes?
Participants·will be introduced·to work techniques that mobilize accessible and low-tech devices: Self-built electret microphones, portable recorders, hi-Fi broadcast systems — a small technological lutherie ready to be activated, diverted, switched on. An experimental session, based on the direct manipulation of instruments, will be devoted to what are commonly referred to as sound artifacts — distortions, breaths, larsens, turbulence, contact sounds and other manifestations generally assigned to interference status in field recording practices.
These phenomena will be approached not as residues to be corrected, but as vibrational matter, likely to be activated in gestures of listening, recording and performative utterance. Between chance and mastery, drift and intention, technological imperfections will be welcomed as operating forces, compositional agents. It will be about letting machines speak in their failures, their tremors, their excesses — to deal with the unpredictable and to open immediate, situated, context-sensitive responses.
The session will conclude with a collective performative intervention within the exhibition space — a circulation of sound flows, an activation of acoustic presences, an attempt to make the sound substrate flush in what is more unstable and undisciplined.
