As part of her micro-residency at theUM, artist Raphaëlle BOUVIER returns to theUM with her collective, Muerto Coco: on the program are electronic readings… and a superb Caravane Sonore, which will tour the campuses ofthe IUT in Nîmes,the IUT in Béziers, and the IUT in Triolet!

What are e-readers?

Hybrid artistic performances, blending contemporary poetry and music, where children’s electronic toys and adults’ electronic toys come together… and all of this in the intimate setting of a trailer!

An “Electronic Reading” is a 25-minute immersion in a musical and soundscape unique to each reading.
And since the collection is divided into twelve thematic sections, that gives you twelve good reasons (at least) to join the Caravane Sonore!
