"For my collaborative piece Our Seasons Reverse I used recordings captured in Waziers, Saint Nazaire, Calais, Lille, Roubaix, Paris, London between 2017 and 2018. These recordings compiled a number of events that included museum visits, various walks by the sea, in the forest, under the rain, in the wind. I also play some organ parts. The link between all was the natural elements which are unleashed, all that could express that the climate is disrupting, that our seasons reverse, in a dramatic way." - Bruno Duplant, 22 October 2018

"For my collaborative piece Our Seasons Reverse I used recordings captured in Bogotá – Colombia, Nantes, Paris, Saint Nazaire and Carquefou – France, and Huddersfield, Marsden, London and Manchester – UK between June of 2017 and April 2018. These recordings compiled a number of events that included a DIY Theremin workshop that I directed in Bogotá, a Sculpture artistic Residency to which I was invited in France, and a number harsh snow storms happening during March-April in England, where I moved on 2018 in order to course a PhD in Music performance. On my side the piece was built as a number of unanticipated events occurred in this span of time allowing for contingency to determine the sounds that ultimately will compose this piece. As usual I consider my role as composer as a mediation between my surroundings and the listener." - David Vélez, 22 October 2018
