DAY 4

Today my tourist expedition was quite short. I just had time to visit the Purana Qila old fort before retreating under the rain. 



On the road back i encountered this strange road sign that should have been design for my good old town of Geneva...


(on a second thought i believe the second one could have been too..)

Tonight i've been in KHOJ a cultural center for a night of experimental electronic music for the release of a CD "Sound Reasons Epiphany" (check it out : http://soundreasons.in/sound-reasons-epiphany-2014). It seems that i was pretty lucky because there is not that much of this kind of music around here. First we had a guy whom i forgot the name (sorry for that) that had video synchronized to the sound through Processing (the next software i plan to learn)  and second Ish which is responsable for the compilation, his live was beautiful, very dreamy. 



Then came da Saz, he is living here since 16 years and he came from... Lausanne (the city next to my hometown..). Very nice guy using Modular synth for a very abstract live-set. We already planned to play the 3 of us next week. So i would have travelled a quarter of the world to play with a fellow compatriot.



On my way i stopped by Gatti studio where i've been in residency two years ago. Mandeep, who is in charge there and the sweetest guy of the city is gonna think with whom i could collaborate to produce a small dance piece to show before i leave, i'm really waiting for that. 



So, Day 4 and already two projects on the go, i will certainly not have time to get bored. 

On the Mantar project side : I started to read the manual of Stellarium a software that reproduce the night sky (and day sky too). It is free and very fun to use, have a try : stellarium.org

Thanks for Stellarium!
Besides your great time at the KHOJ, I'm totally stoned out of my mind by the road signs you discovered this day!
