To celebrate the anniversary of the Elysée Treaty, the Alliance Française of Pondicherry, Alliance Française of Madras and the Goethe Institut Max Mueller Bhavan are putting together Electro Heritage Concert with a light show with artistes DJ Psychorigid, Blindoff and Golden Disko Ship. The banyan tree, emblematic of India, signifies a living culture that is constantly evolving. Taking a cue, the concert represents an India-Germany-France trinity demonstrating that the mix of cultures of origin is an integral part of the answer to the questions surrounding the resilience of culture. The concert will witness the meeting of three groups of specialised artists - a DJ, a German-Indian group and a lighting artist — who will create two shows in historical places in Chennai (Madras Literary Society) and Pondicherry (Consulate General of France in Pondichery) representing their architectural memory. Musicians will create ancient musical traditions and modern sounds to produce a harmony that stretches through time, in turn offering a new perspective to a population that has forgotten the richness of a monument.
In addition, the light artist will create a façade in a mandala of seeds sprouting and growing towards a light source which will be superimposed on an opening in the building on the background. The video will be produced in time lapse and then mapped upstream. The building is seen offering its own discourse while strengthening the link to nature. This intertwining of nature and architecture, gives a glimpse of architectural heritage as an ecosystem with plant life.
