At the root of Static current is the contrast between minute sound particles, sparkles of quasi infinitesimal duration, and long held masses, on the opposite end of the sonic gamut. The sounds of Static current were partly realized at IRCAM, using phase vocoding techniques, while another part was done at studio Ligys, with a specially written program to derive clouds of short sounds, using the Max language and loosely based on the chaos theory. The final work was done in traditional electronic music studio of the Groupe de Musique Vivante de Lyon, upon their invitation. Courant Statique was premiered in the Parc de la Villa Gillet, Lyon, during a summer night in July 1991.
