The only stable thing is movement

“Jean sait Siffert” — inspired by Pit-Stop
A piece about speed, friction, and the relationship between Tinguely and Jo Siffert: the theme compresses/expands like acceleration, and the improvisation evokes engines, racing noise, and the sensation of a machine pushed to its limits.

“Chromokinesis” — inspired by Méta-Harmonie
Built from a “mechanical cycle” idea: layered repeating cells, rotating tempos/metrics, and shifting overlaps — like a kinetic orchestra that’s structured, but always unpredictable on the surface.

“Les Automates” — inspired by Metamechanics
A moving painting that moves its forms in different speeds.

Une folie du dernier cri” — inspired by Éloge de la folie
A more lyrical / dramatic piece: a poetic entry into madness as a creative force — fragile, intense, sometimes humorous, sometimes raw.
