Artists>>Jean-Philippe Renoult
Jean-Philippe Renoult aka Jopo Stereo: Writer, radio producer, sound artist, curator and cut-up DJ, Jean-Philippe Renoult's sound work is as much influenced by early avant guarde cut up work of the 2Oth century, to the turntablists and DJs of the 80s to today. Under the pseudonym of Jopo Stereo he blends electronic compositions with voices and noises from a variety of musical backgrounds (pop, rock, disco, classical.). These tiny audio fragments are then tuned, detuned and mixed together to become part of an extended « sample dust environment ».
He performs on the airwaves, in galleries and through sound installations. Jean-Philippe curates
and presents the 'Voir et Entendre' (See and Hear) cycle of conferences at the Pompidou Centre
Paris, conceived « Sound Drop », an ongoing series of curated audiowalks in Europe, and cowrote
Songs of the Brewery, a sound installation conceived in
collaboration with Art Trail for Cork, Capital of Culture 2005.
