An outdoor modular session.
In the beautiful french pyrenees,
at the Plateau du Benou.
Creative Process
E l e v a t i o n
is part of a 3 episode sessions
we originally recorded for the
Hashiconf in last May.
We only had 5 weeks to do
3 loops of the entire process.
Elevation was our first round.
It took place in the wonderful
Plateau du Benou,
in the south west of France,
where i’ve been based for
the last 5 years.
It is one of my favorite spots
in the region.
I celebrated changes of
seasons, in the middle
of the 3000 yo.

dancing around the fire.
Asking the Universe
We came a week earlier for the
“reminder“ exploration,
to capture soundscapes, landscapes,
reconnect with this amazing spot
but also to consciously realised
how difficult it will be to carry all the
gear. As we’re only 2,
we sometimes have to renounce.
It was quite a challenge with a bit more
than 80 kgs of equipment.
When coming back for the session,
we started the ascension in the full
darkness, lights on our heads,
at 2 am, to be sure to not miss
the sunrise.
When we arrived at the Plateau,
still in the full darkness,
we saw 100 flashing eyes,
a big and happy band
of llamas & sheeps.
Some of you know how much
animals are important for me,
and how i feel it is always a benediction
when we meet them before a session.
Seeing, listening, feeling
this magical valley
being slowly illuminated,
all the animals awakening around,
the energies of this ground, the trees, the moon, the sun...
was a truly breathtaking moment.
The entire process,
so deep & transformative
✨ ⛰️ ✨
For the last 5 years,
being close to Nature
helped me to heal,
to reconnect in many
different levels.
I have so much gratitude
for everything she gave me,
(or took away with her),
she gives us.
I hope you will
appreciate the journey.
🙏 ✨ 🙏
Episode 2 is taking place in a very unusual spot.
Really can’t wait to share more about it.
