About

Pierre Jolivet originally from Paris, is an artist who's currently based in Dublin, Ireland. Pierre started in the early eighties, as a French pioneer under the moniker of Pacific 231, in the industrial and power electronics musical fields before moving into more ambient and abstract electronic sounds. His works now explores the very limit of sound and space, especially through his past and present multimedia performances: Stif(f)le and Im'shi presented in numerous countries and his recent audiovisual production: Micromega. In 2010, he became part of the Luigi Russolo jury, a prestigious international award in acousmatic music created in 1979 by Gian Franco Maffina and Rossana Maggia with the participation of François Bayle and Pierre Schaeffer. He's currently teaching photography and multimedia at University College Dublin and became an MFA graduate in the Digital World at the National College of Art and Design with First Class Honours in 2015.
