2000
«Since autumn 99, I undertook the composition of a new series of works whose general title is “Exploitation of the concepts”.
It is precisely about using the concepts experienced during all my past, and this in all the possible directions.» (L. F.)
Les Archives sauvées des Eaux (2000) — 48′

For 2 CD and a set of vinyls
Premiered : Gent Vooruit, May 2000 with DJ Olive
«The idea to use my archives was born from a need for updating the support of even these memories. I have indeed analogical tapes in my studio representing all the recordings that I made since 1960 and which I have used or not. While copying on CD these elements I was taken of desire to transform this tiresome work into creative work. And instead of copying, I started to compose.»

«The use of the memories is not new for me as I am a recidivist of the autobiography. What is different here, is the installation of the sound and the image. Same manner that I am a composer-sound taker, I am there an image taking composer. The cycle of the memories also means that all the elements are structured in cycles that, while being superimposed, produce hazardous meetings. Therefore all is turning.»

Genetically Modified Archives — Exploitation of the Concepts N° 3
Memorized sounds solo
Created : Paris, Radio France Concert GRM 18-1-2001
«This composition is made with the same musical elements as the Exploitation of the concepts 1, whose title was Saved Archives of Water. This to say that the idea of exploitation allows me to come back on sounds and even of already used sequences, but always with different ideas and an unrecognizable point of view of composition. Besides I feel have to it to exploit my ideas as well as my sounds. I listen, and I make of this rich present a certain memory. Thus these archives are deep and perhaps even genetically modified.»
