[Les instruments de musique:] “Ils seront employés à l’état d’objets et comme faisant partie du décor. […] De plus, la nécessité d’agir directement et profondément sur la sensibilité par les organes invite, du point de vue sonore, à rechercher des qualités et des vibrations de sons absolument inaccoutumées, qualités que les instruments de musique actuels ne possèdent pas, et qui poussent à remettre en usage des instruments anciens et oubliés, ou à créer des instruments nouveaux. Elles poussent aussi à rechercher, en dehors de la musique, des instruments et des appareils qui, basés sur des fusions spéciales ou des alliages renouvelés de métaux, puissent atteindre un diapason nouveau de l’octave, produire des sons ou des bruits insupportables, lancinants.”
— Antonin Artaud, Le théâtre et son double

Retransmisión is a collective creation based on Antonin Artaud’s radiophonic work Pour en finir avec le jugement de Dieu [To Have Done With the Judgment of God], for three improvisers, live electronics, and edited video images. Composed by Jorge L Sad, with the Gest(u)alt Ensamble (Juliana Moreno, flute; Claudio Eiriz, percussion and vocals; Javier Mariani, clarinet and wakra-phuku; Francisco Colasanto, Max/MSP programming and computer; Gabriel Gendin, audio engineer), and video images by Deborah Lynne.

The old vinyl recordings of the performance have been digitalized without any restoration process, in order to leave “the sound of time” untouched. The sonic character of the voice of Artaud and the other actors (María Casares and Roger Blin), their visceral inflexions and strong sound qualities, were the models that we have taken to elaborate the character of the different sections of the work. Retransmisión is an hommage to Artaud and his prophetic vision of the 21st century: cloning for military purposes, wars made by remote control to impose american products, destruction of nature.
