A project of contemporany pre-historic music ! De Mémoire
d'Os is a monumental and founding work of Alain
De Filippis. This work in several parts has been created
and played in 1987 inside a cave used for minig of marl, near
Chartres in the little village of Jouy (France). In the audience,
there were experts in experimental music, as well as inhabitants
of the village. Music was pre-recorded and played within light
projections : a pre-historical music, primitive and raw, filled
with an imaginary bestiary that probably inhabited the caves
of our ancestors. « De Mémoire d'Os » (of
bones memory) mirrors and other Herculean task of Alain
De Filippis on a data base of sounds, a kind of Sound
Encyclopedia : the first pages of this un-finished (and not
published) work were dedicated to pre-historic sounds, were
those of « De Mémoire d'Os » could have
been registered.
