Conclusion of the Odyssey

“The soundscape is a new territory to discover, at the heart of my city, at the heart of myself. Wind, water, steps, wood, the lost sounds of the past and the overpopulation of sounds today.” — Excerpt from the narration of the film written by Georgette Duchaîne

“I explored the soundscape and my ear drew me towards the secret path where reality and invisibility meet, and where soul and mind talk eternally.” — Excerpt from the narration of the film written by Georgette Duchaîne

“Now I will do nothing but listen… I hear all sounds running together, combined, fused or following, sounds of the city and sounds out of the city, sounds of the day and night…” — Walt Whitman (American poet), Song of Myself, 1819-1892
