"Votre Faust" was prepared in the electronic studios of Gant and
Brussels during a long period of time (1961-1968), as Pousseur had
begun working on this piece with Butor back from 1961!! The tape part
includes sythesized voices with shouted elements all mixed together in
various degrees of volume and differently synchronized blocks of sound.
Henri Pousseur is known for being one of the first electronic music
composers, producing back in 1957 "Scambi" at the Studio di Fonologia
Milan, one of the first and most evolved at its' time electronic pieces,
while "Trois Visages de Liege"(1961) is one of the most groundbreaking
electronic works ever written!! More of his electronic works were released
recently on Sub Rosa and Alga Marghen. While, Pousseur is also known
for his close connection with german composer Karlheinz Stockhausen
back in the early days. While his musical researches brought him close
to composers like Vinko Globokar, Karel Goeyvaerts, Luis de Pablo,
Pierre Bartholomee, Frederic Rzewsky, Philippe Boesmans and others.
Michel Marie François Butor studied philosophy at the Sorbonne, graduating
in 1947. He has taught in Egypt, Manchester, Salonika, the United States,
and Geneva. He has won many literary awards for his work, including the
Prix Apollo, the Prix Fénéon and the Prix Renaudot. Journalists and critics
associated his novels with the nouveau roman, but Butor himself has long
resisted that association. The main point of similarity is a very general
one, not much beyond that; like exponents of the nouveau roman, he can
be described as an experimental writer. His best-known novel, La Modification,
for instance, is written entirely in the second person. For decades now, he has
chosen to work in other forms, from essays to poetry to artist's books
to unclassifiable works like Mobile. Literature, painting and travel are subjects
particularly dear to Butor. Part of the fascination of his writing is the way it
combines the rigorous symmetries that led Roland Barthes to praise him as an
epitome of structuralism (exemplified, for instance, by the architectural
scheme of Passage de Milan or the calendrical structure of L'emploi du temps)
with a lyrical sensibility more akin to Baudelaire than to Robbe-Grillet.
