*Duuu radio has recently acquired a vinyl burner in order to realize micro editions of sound projects. This tool allows to burn vinyl records by unit, at real speed.
On the occasion of its 10th anniversary, *Duuu proposes the edition of 10 vinyls of 10 copies each, taken from the archives of the radio, as well as an unpublished project made on the occasion of the exhibition.
The second vinyl of this series is [woːks]: off-series. [woːks] is a series of encounters between two artists-Lauren Tortil and a guest of her choice-about sound art.
During this evening, in several voices around a round table, they discussed practices and spaces of enunciation and listening in the field of sound and visual arts. It was a question of their commitment as artists, of the relationship they have with sound and of trying-without discarding their singularity-to draw a potential common territory. These meetings were recorded during an open-air event in the Parc de la Villette, and broadcast live on *Duuu. It was punctuated by a back-and-forth between collective discussions and the sound creations of each (performances, concerts, readings, etc.).

The posters of the Long Play project for the ten years of *Duuu radio were designed in collaboration with the Atelier de Communication graphique de la Hear, and more particularly Alice Bourdelon, Clément Gass and Olivier Quern.
The posters of the exhibition become, thanks to a folding system, the sleeves of the engraved vinyls. The cut-outs of the posters are used for the vinyl buttons.

Anne Le Troter
Anne Le Troter is an artist mixing sound installation, performance, theater, stand-up, literature and poetry. She is interested in the place occupied by the word that is exposed at work in our capitalist societies-those of telephone interviewers, ASMR artists, the medical profession or sperm bank employees-that she re-enacts in sound installations. At the same time, the artist is also interested in the word that is sheltered, in the word that is home, which she collects in sound garments, performative devices and libraries proposing another geography to the word on the space of the body. "When I put on the sound clothes, there is the weight of the word that anchors my body, I thicken suddenly, I swell. "The chapters of La Pornoplante by Anne Le Troter are based on the genre of audio porn, sound eroticism and ASMR.

Anna Holveck
A visual artist at the crossroads of several disciplines, Anna Holveck weaves together the experience of sound, performance, voice, video and musical composition. She questions the ways in which the nature of the space influences the morphology of sound, provokes a particular reading of it, responds to the composition and enters into resonance with the body.
Méryll Ampe
Sound artist and sculptor by training, Méryll Ampe establishes links between these two practices and conceives sound as a medium to be sculpted in real time and improvises from analog sources. All this to interrogate a relentlessly dense sound matter that evolves underground and in relief. Creating different layers live and playing with the interweaving of volumes, planes and perspectives, she likes to skirt the limits of sound and dig into its flesh with a permanent interest for roughness, porosity, mass-density and the unexpected. In live performance, she engages in a powerfully instinctive and radical way, calling upon the listening of the place and the body that serves as her barometer for a thunderous result of sonic salvos at once abstract-noise and rhythmic-saturation.
Lauren Tortil is a sound artist and researcher interested in the relationship between humans and their sound environments, through the prism of the history of sound technologies and mediated experiences. If sight seems to be the hegemonic sense in our Western societies, Lauren Tortil insists on hearing and develops an artistic approach where the process of listening is presented as an active and reflexive practice, political and critical on the world that surrounds us. This approach translates into installations, performances and sound pieces as well as publications and workshops.
Since March 2021, she has been carrying the editorial project [wo:ks] which consists of a series of interviews and co-creations with sound artists.
