Le Cri Infini

Audio installation

2023

Antoine Schmitt and Hortense Gauthier

Le Cri Infini (the infinite scream) is an audio installation which utters an infinite scream, generatively composed from recordings of real screams. The screams cross-fade and merge to create a really infinite scream, always different and evolving.

Angry, desperate, painful, anxious, happy, extatic, the scream is the primal expression of the presence in the world of human beings. This installation navigates in the totality of these human screams and proposes a cathartic immersion in them.

Le Cri Infini is generatively composed from recordings of real screams of participants of all horizons. Recording sessions are organized around the exhibitions of the Cri Infini.
