1999

“Miss Missing System is an installed sound setup, involving a dialog between a machine and a singer, on the mode of prepared improvisation. The sound machine is constituted of families of sounds, which development expressed a psychology: internal states, reactive humors, fusion desires… Miss Missing System is a presence of sound atmosphere continuously waiting. The punctual interventions of the sunger trigger a dialog mode.

The setup is the result of a collaboration between three artists: Vincent Epplay, sound artist, Joana Preiss, singer, Antoine Schmitt, artist-programmer.”

Installed in the Zac99 exhibition in the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, on invitation by icono, in October 1999.

Miss Missing System comes from a team work process which also yielded infinite CD for unlimited music, the first infinite CD, as well as various working tools around the notion of generative partition and organized real-time mixing tools.
