ARTS AND SCIENCE
These collaborations between artists and scientists offer enormous potential for possibilities and applications to open new avenues of research and help understand the mysteries of the human mind.
For Veronica Antonelli, this original approach is part of UNESCO recognition. It is also an opportunity to give another dimension to one's art, the fruit of long studies and years of research, and to contribute to science in a unique and significant way.
Since 2022, the fruit of years of research and experimentation in different sound universes has naturally led the CNRS to take an interest in the observations of the atypical performer Veronica Antonelli who preferred large spaces to opera houses that had become too narrow to express his art.
Tests were carried out in Aix-en-Provence then at Prism in Marseille on projects which question and invite us to better understand the links between the human voice, the brain, music, and cognition.
Two research subjects are being carried out simultaneously: the structure of acoustics based on the perceptions of the soprano on the one hand and inter-species interaction on the other.
Then on June 20, 2024, the CNRS traveled on the unique route of Montmartre Enchanté and explored two gardens in particular: the St Vincent wild garden thanks to authorizations issued by the Paris City Hall on the one hand and the gardens of the St Pierre church with authorization from Father Alexandre.
A project that brings together two structures: La Touche Enchantée and the CNRS.
