Introduction
Three composers and a video artist present three different works in three concerts that take place simultaneously in three cities. Synchronized video and sound recordings unite Athens, Karlsruhe, and Paris in real time, to create a soundscape that breaches the bounds of geography. How can we change the way a city sounds?
A classical orchestra is set on stage, but the musicians are missing. The city sounds, diffused in the concert hall, cause the instruments to vibrate, adding their own particular timbre into the Athenian soundscape. At prearranged moments, the concert incorporates sound and visual material from Karlsruhe and Paris. Converging in this way, the three cities turn into a collective, vibrant, and all-inclusive body that welcomes us in. An ATLAS - Athens Soundscape Recordings group was trained and equipped by Stegi, in order to collect the city sounds we listen to in the concert. Project ATLAS was first conceived by the composer, mathematician, and researcher Carmine-Emanuele Cella.

IRCAM the Institute for Research and Coordination in Acoustics/Music, is one of the world's largest public research centers dedicated to both musical expression and scientific research. A unique location where artistic sensibilities collide with scientific and technological innovation directed by Frank Madlener, bringing together over 160 people.
IRCAM's three principal activities - creation, research, transmission - are visible in IRCAM's Parisian concert season, in productions throughout France and abroad, in a new rendezvous created in June 2012, ManiFeste, that combines an international festival with a multidisciplinary academy.
Founded by Pierre Boulez, IRCAM, a non-profit making association with recognized public utility, is associated with the Centre Pompidou, under the aegis of the French Ministry of Culture and Communication. IRCAM and the CNRS are associated in the framework of the STMS Joint Research lab (Sciences et technologies de la musique et du son - UMR 9912) and were joined by the Pierre et Marie Curie University (UPMC) in 2010 and in the framework of the project team MuTant, INRIA.The ZKM (Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe) is an institution of all media and genres, a house of both spatial arts such as painting, photography and sculpture and time-based arts such as film, video, media art, music, dance, theater and performance. Founded in 1989 with the mission of continuing the classical arts into the digital age, the ZKM is also called the digital Bauhaus.
By combining research and production, exhibition and performance, collection and archive, the ZKM is able to adequately depict the development of 20th and 21st century art, not least because the collection, exhibition and research activities of the ZKM are accompanied by symposia and other platforms of theoretical discourse between philosophy, science, art, politics and business. From the very beginning, the ZKM has taken on the task of creating innovative conditions for the emergence of art. To this end, in the ZKM’s Hertz Lab guest artists, scholars, and scientists from all over the world research, develop, and produce works on artificial intelligence, augmented reality, virtual reality, and many other themes. Besides presenting and producing art, the ZKM is committed to preserving interactive, digital media artworks, and in this area develops new technological methods for new forms of art. It is this interaction between research and production, between exhibitions and performances that sets the ZKM apart from other cultural institutions—it is more than a museum, it is a center and a future lab.
All forms of art can be experienced here and future developments can be actively shaped.
The stage will be connected with the ZKM Cube (Karlsruhe) and Centre Pompidou (Paris). The audience may be filmed during the performance. The images will be broadcast live in the other concert halls and recorded.
