(1) A research project by the Aubervillers Laboratories, the Encyclopaedia of the Word is the fruit of work by this extremely active research group in the Paris region which brings together a dozen artists. This project is aimed at an all-embracing overview of the diversity of oral forms of expression, in encyclopaedic form: speeches, poetry, telephone calls, Court presentations, rituals, rap, etc. The term "indexation", selected by the group for its Lausanne performance, will be interpreted in the form of a conference, followed by an audio piece by the composer Pierre-Yves MACE (recorded at Les Urbaines Festival, Lausanne by Swiss Radio/EBU)
